Massed strings and large choral groups


A longtime audio dealer and fellow audiophile told me that massed strings and large choral groups are two of the hardest things for a system to reproduce. Do you agree?

Yeah. Not "The hardest", but when they can be heard as distinct voices or instruments, it is an ear opener.
Usually all you hear is a big blur.
First time I ever heard all distinct voices was listening to Infinity RSIIa at a Chicago dealer back in 1984 or so.
Carmina Burana... wow.
I bought those speakers and had them for 17 years
