We are on the same page. These days it is only a few times a year but for many, many years I attended the Cleveland Orchestra at Severance Hall, row K center. That hall is amply represented in the catalogues.
My system always is ... a replica. Scale of size is hard to get, naturally. (My system presents mroe of a front of 1st balcony feel) Dynamic scales are not 1:1 but the proportions are sometimes right there. I feel the jump. Brass hits fast and present, if not at the same exact level of intensity. I don't listen at performance volume levels. The replica isn't as fine, when it gets too loud.
In some tonal areas, the system is remarkably easy to suspend disbelief. Violin. Ever since I got the LRS's massed strings are a problem only if they are a problem on the recording! If you too love classical music, I bet you know massed strings have to be good. And they are not easy to get good.
No static at all.
