Well a sort of all enveloping effect, sound all around you sort of thing, especially the bass which is sort of everywhere. It gives the sensation of larger scale but at the expense of that sort of panaromic soundstage view with image specifity (a feature of much recorded music)... for example large scale like Wilson MAX II but sloppier, the MAXX II seems to do scale but without loosing the look into soundstage effect; but even the MAXX II seems less acurate or controlled compared to WATT/Puppy 7 it seems to me.
Most omnidirectional systems I've heard seem to cast the big sound effect I might add.
I suppose I would say in general big sound emulates live PA/sound systems, good ones.

Everything matters, don't forget to tweak your placebos!
