What you're trying to sell here is an either/or approach.Distilling your post to its essential message:-
High-end = spacial information but missing the impact and presence of the real, live musicians
Horny = the sound of the real, live musicians, without all the spacial stuffWhich you equate to "You are there" vs. "They are here"
"When you walk past a bar you know when the music is an actual band and that has nothing to do with soundstage"
I agree completely. Where we differ is when you stop in, buy a beer, sit down to listen to the music.
The room has space, height and atmosphere. The musicians are playing on a stage, left and right. Its not a vacuum. And its most certainly not my listening room
For me "You are there" should give me the live musicians, with all their dynamics, presence, verve and excitement, playing in their original venue. "They are here" is simply a sub-set of the same, minus all the spacial information.
Which would you really prefer? "You are there" live at the Wigmore Hall or "They are here" live in your 20 x 14 foot listening room.
Personally, I'll take the Wigmore, which is perhaps where those ridiculously expensive loudspeakers fit in?
