TONE

So, hear is my latest conundrum(well, perhaps that is a little bit of a  hyperbole)...
I enjoy my current system immensely, but do not actively compare it to others or seek listening to live music...I remain pleased with my systems dynamics, soundstage, detail, BUT am always wondering about TONE...being we all, more or less, have limited audio memory, I imagine only musicians who are regularly acquainted with the TRUE TONE of live instruments can recognize the accuracy of the TONE of an audio system....I guess I  kind of answered my own question, in saying I enjoy my system, BUT any advice/thoughts/suggestions about how one satisfies this concern?

@mahgister,
+1 , very good call on Moravec’s Chopin Nocturne . I’ve owned that CD for years and very close to what I hear during live piano recitals at a Steinway Piano Gallery near my home.

For those who enjoy jazz, 1. Tardo Hammer" pianist CD , "Look,Stop and Listen".studio.
2. Kenny Barren "Live At Bradley’s".
Very good CD capturing of live piano sound.
