The question is how to create an illusion of live music inside a home listening room.This illusion was easily created in 1960's ers High Fidelity shows where a string quartet pretended to play music in an auditorium while AR speakers played a good mastertape of the quartet.
What does analog versus digital have to do with that illusion?
