And I will certainly agree with your observation that "live" amplified concerts are simply massive mono mixes (at earbleeding levels, no less). Which is why I don't regularly attend them any more or make sure I bring earplugs when I do! I enjoy being able to actually hear individual characteristics of the instruments - which I find virtually absent in the massive goulash of "reinforced" sound.
I'm convinced that many differences in the way we approach our systems has to do with our musical preferences. I could not relate, for example, with bjh's post regarding high (95 - 97 db) levels. I never do that. My RS meter reports momentary peaks in the high 80s when I power listen. Average levels are always in the 70s range. Indeed, my system can never approach anything resembling a live rock concert. Don't want it to!
