I see where you're coming from, but I can't help but feel that you simply cannot bypass the physics here. Look, I bet it would be possible to design a front-engined, front-wheel-drive car that could match the lap-time of a similar-powered mid-engined, rear-wheel-drive car around the Nurburgring. But, I refuse to believe that the former could be made to feel and handle the same as the latter - the physics simply will not allow it.

I mean instead so going for a playback that would do “everything” (it realty it might do nothing) you might start from a cheap playground playback in context of which, you can model what you like and where you might be able to find something upon which you might what to capitalize in your future full-scale, larger playback.
Yes, I think this is the way forward. I will keep an eye out for anything that looks remotely interesting. Meanwhile, I have set up my old DR speakers in my new (actually, 125 years old... but you know what I mean) house. The sound that I'm getting is surprisingly listenable with all genres bar classical, which I tend to listen to on my headphones.

Thanks for all the ideas, but I doubt I'll make much progress for a while - there's simply too much else going on in life right now, and it seems that dipping into the world of horns is not something to be taken lightly...

Mani.
