And here's the rub

>And that truth is that you put your best sound system together and I can take anyone wiht normal hearing blindfolded into a room with it and someone playing an actual unamplified musical instrument and they will have no trouble picking out which is which just about every single time.<

True... and it speaks to your point to E-Stat above about the need to "re-engineer" the home audio experience from the ground up. I do believe that incremental improvements are possible and I have not heard the extreme upper limits of the improvement scale but I also believe that it's not too far away from the best I have heard. If that's true, we're still light years away from fooling most folks with the test of yours I quoted. The fact is, at those times that I am fooled by my system, it's because I allow myself to be. I'm primed to be fooled. If you put me in a room blindfolded and said "tell me which is live and which is the system", I'd hit it most every time if not every time. So would most people.
