Soundstage - Too much?


Is there such a thing as too much soundstage? Should the width of the stage extend to the side walls in your listening room? How would you compare the soundstage in your system to live music?

Interesting question. It's generally accepted that the wider and deeper recreation of the acoustic space your system cam produce, the better. However, it's been my experience that at live acoustic concerts I don't hear any soundstage information. The sound of the music is so entwined with the sound of the space that it's impossible to distinguish between them. This level of reality is impossible to reproduce within another acoustic space (your room).
