I get wanting a home system to have the clarity and dynamics of live music, but it is rare to hear a live concert that sounds great unless in a specifically designed music venue. Ive been to more concerts than not that are boomy, too echoy, etc.
As I posted previoisly my Carver pre amp has a sonic holograghy function that helps expand music all around the speskers.. I have read about some high end systems that naturally do this, but since my budget is limited I make the best of what I have.
