I'd love to know what your system is, Lea. I've tried systems with price tags North of $20,000, and I struggled (granted, they weren't mine, and it wasn't an extended session).

If you're a real fidelity nut, see em acoustic. Unplugged even. There's absolutely no loss of aural quality due to silly things like cables and electiricity(not being sarcastic, just embracing the debate of real musical quality, and what the ear hears most purely), ports and cards, all those things rewriting the original, unique and individual harmonic qualities of the instruments you're listening to. Personally, if I want to hear music at it's most pure and real, it MUST be live, but that's an entirely different subject. I've been afforded the opportunity to see hundreds, if not several thousands, of sets, from most of the range of music, live over the course of my life, so I am spoiled rotten. But, nonetheless, those idiosyncrasies are the exciting thing about music, and the way we connect with the performers we adore/idolize/admire, and feel a shared humanity.

For real though, studio vs. venue, venue wins hands down, out cold, no debate, end story.

Completely agreed. You can't really "know" an artist or person till you're up and close to them. Some of my favorite artists turned out to be douches/business monkeys when seen live, even though their music wouldn't even given it away in over a decade, and yet, others feel completely down to Earth (the two names that I met/talked to and instantly pop into mind when I mention connecting/knowing what an artist is about are Leona Lewis and Brian Fair). I can't really explain it as well as you did, but there's always the personality judgment/connection factor shared between fan and performer in a live session, that can't be experienced through a pair of headphones and high fidelity files.
I'm in no rush, but I didn't want you to prove anything. All I wanted to know was what your system was composed of, so I can hunt a friend or someone who has it, and find out if I can get it for myself, too, down the road. However, you're welcome to do things your way.

MP3 is more better then flac ,
Free Lossless Audio Codec (FLAC) is better, because it is lossless, isn't it?
get proper hardware and then listen, sure you see the difference
Recorded has better fidelity than live - Perlman playing Paganini sounds better on my laptop than my friends do in real life - this is real proof bring it!
