Not going to get it to sound like 'real live music' because you have no idea what the circumstances are under which it was recorded, what the mic placement was, how it was mixed, etc. 'Real live music' is subjective, not objective. You can hear it from the front of the venue, you can hear it from the back of the venue, you can hear it sitting next to the performer, and it does not sound the same at all. Seems to me that the object should be to have music sound as much like the master as possible, after it was recorded and mixed.
The Absolute Sound vs Pleasing Sound
I have changed my mind about this over the years. The absolute sound (closest to real live music) just can't be accomplished even though I have heard some spectacular systems that get close on some music. So years ago I changed my system to give me the sound I wanted. I'm much happier now and all my music collection can be enjoyed for what it is: Recorded music.
