We should ask two questions:

1. What is fidelity? This is usually taken to be a window
on the concert hall.

Not a bad question.

Ironically, almost none of the audiofools who rant and rave about concert
hall realism were in the concert hall when the recording in question was
made. Most of them have never been in that particular concert hall in
their lives. Not that many of them have even heard that particular
orchestra play live.

Oh, I get it - "All concert halls sound the same" and "All orchestras
sound the same".



Not a bad answer, shoots holes right through the ludicrous 'being there'
BS......
