Several years ago I spent quite a bit of time and money putting together a stereo that produced a very detailed and precise soundstage. I loved having a very detailed scale model of a performance right in my living room. But if I closed my eyes while listening to live music, whether in a jazz club, bar, or orchestra hall I never actually "saw" a soundstage like I got with my stereo. To my ears the corner horns sound much more like listening to live music. Put another way, I used to listen to a great re-creation of music, now I listen to the music.
