I'd like to complement you on your ability to stay on topic and keep your posts both useful and reasonable. I strive to do as well but often fail :)
In spite of the previous paragraph I'd like to offer a slightly different experience:
I have an amazing number of well recorded surround SACDs which give a much more realistic (in the sense of being there) experience than this thread might lead one to believe. (Don't get me wrong I also have the a lot of ping-pong MC recordings and completely artificial recordings: some fun, some not.) To me it obviously more realistic to hear the orchestra clearly in front of you while at the same time hearing applause all around you... I know it sound like being there because I have listened to a lot of live performances as well as participating in bands, choirs, etc.
In my case I simply have well engineered equipment and minimal processing: no time alignment, no room correction, no diversion of bass to a sub. I just put four speakers up at equal distance from the sweet spot on as big of a circle as would fit in my room. There is no issue of soundstage depth or width, you are just there...
