State of art VERSUS PERFECTION?


If you could put the very finest box speakers we can currently make today, against the perfect speaker, what would the difference in sound quality be? Would the depth of stereo image be ten times deeper? the width ten times wider? would you hear instruments that you never knew existed in your recordings? would the difference be so big that it would make a Magico or kef blade sound like a toy? Just how far away are we from PERFECT SOUND?!

@OP:

Due to thermodynamics, all recording and playback systems are lossy.

Thus... perfectionism, according to physics, cannot exist. Time would also have to take a beating and be defeated, as this is tied to the thermodynamics in-situ, and so on...

Once we’ve come up with some sort of new physics re quantum function, that sidesteps the involved Newtonian centric thermodynamics/time/entropy/etc..and we can somehow apply this advance to recording audio signals.... and we can prove that the system is improved.... then maybe we can assess that possible differential between the two. Never mind the mass of the drivers and more complex thermodynamics, complex electromagnetics, fundamental forces, gravitation, inertia, dark matter, molecular bonding, etc...

the assessment of perfection requires that we be outside of all we know, extra dimensional , at the least, and then maybe we can inject perfection into the dimension we are no longer involved in.

It's Godel's Incompleteness theorem, as tied to 'perfectionism' in this dimension's reality and physics. It requires an outside location and view, to assess it. That you cannot deal with or assess the whole of the box, from being inside of it. Interference and losses are the norm, and completeness cannot be achieved. Logically impossible on all fronts. 

We'd have to be extra-dimensional beings of some sort, and then look at the smaller now fully encompassed box of this known reality we currently inhabit, and then... somehow assess the said smaller reality box.

Until then, piss off.
