To assess how far audio imaging from sound of a ”live” musical presentation we need to subtract visual experiences from perception, including the long-lasting visual experiences.
OK, Soundstage is a BS category and I kind of trying to present Imaging as not BS category. One might argue that Imaging does not exist in real life and here where I proposed above to exclude the long-lasting visual experiences. Let me to explane. The closing eyes when we are in Symphony Hall is NOT enough to erase own mind’s visual perception. We need to be blind form the beginning of the entire event in order to stop extrapolating space with our vision and switch to sound recognition only. It means: we need to be brought to a NEW listening hall blinded, or preferably be blinded from birth – then we USE acoustic imaging and process the reflections and delays like the only commodities, like bats do. Do not forget that audio is inherently blind by birth.
