"" I take no audio systems nor recordings of music seriously. Music is only music when it is experienced as a live performance""
I think all would agree with the latter part of your statement, but for those of us with a limited amount of funds available for tickets to live performances, we make do with recordings. What do you think you will do upon the unfortunate, and inevitable, demise of your favourite performers? And then there are those performers who actually ceased performing prior to you having had the chance to hear them in concert.
""I have to close my eyes and imagine that I am sitting in severance hall and conjure up all of the tactile, aural, and emotional inputs""
I guess that means having another stereo system set up in your lounge with background noises of people coughing, moving their feet, whispering and rustling coats, bags and other objects?
