Do we really know what "Live" music sounds like?

Coming back to the op’s statement I often find that so called ’live music’ via HiFi System would sound better than the ’studio’ version, because it has the advantage of sounding organic with verve. Sometimes listening to sealed speakers in comparison to ported speakers has the same effect which makes the music more ’immediate’ one of the treasure of the ATC speakers and highlights more how the musicians are playing their instruments. Groups such as Pink Floyd and Dire Straits have done studio and live albums of their same tracks, often the way the tracks have been performed are nearly  identical in Studio mode or Live mode but the sound effect of the ’Live’ mode for me is the instant obvious advantage of that live instant and immediate sound.....

As virtually all the concerts I attend are unamplified classical concerts (orchestral, chamber choral, organ and piano recitals) or small acoustic ensembles (folk), and playing guitar and singing in choirs myself, I'd say I know what live music sounds like.  I don't know what classical concerts Roger is attending, but rarely do I see the use of sound reinforcement in a concert hall other than for Broadway shows.  

     A little something, of which most are unaware, regarding some of those, "...unamplified Classical concerts...", here:

     It’s been my experience, if one desires (generally) good (sometimes: excellent) venues (acoustically) and a live music experience, of diverse genres, without breaking their budget; doing an online search for local college campuses, with concert programs, can be most fruitful.
