How to get the impact of a live concert?


Yes, I know, big speakers, lots of power. : ) But I really am looking to "feel" the dynamics of the music, like you would at a concert. I'm not only talking about bass, although that is certainly a part of it. My wife and I were at Dave Matthews Band concert last night and it always amazes me, how impactful music is when it's live. Obviously, I understand they have a LOT of power driving a LOT of speakers, but they were filling the whole outdoors (outside venue). I'm only trying to fill my listening room. Would a good sub help? Different speakers?

I currently have Gallo Reference 3.1's and Klipchs Forte II's (Crites mods) driven by a Musical Fidelity Nu-Vista M3.

Have you ever heard a home system that has met the goals that you are looking for;if you have then I would take notice of what gear was being used and then compare to your setup and consider making changes. Remember that the listening enviroment will be a factor that you can try to emulate as well.I think you can come close to live sound but it is probally extremely hard to replicate;for me it is pink floyd that I heard twice in Mpls,Mn;I have a high end system and it comes close but it is still not the same as being in the metrodome mainfloor center stage not very far from david gilmour and richard wright;enjoy the quest as it is part of this fine hobby.
