The sense of smell evokes memories, while the sense of hearing evokes emotions

Thank you Mr. D for the kind reply.
I get what you are saying and agree.
I'm looking for some input from a non technophile point of view. Maybe I should be asking this on a "music lovers" forum if there is such a thing. I really don't spend much time on this or other audio forums because, quite frankly and I'm not saying there is anything wrong with being fixated with the gear and wanting to talk about it, ( I think I was at one time and have outgrown that to some degree or to be kind I will say matured). I'm looking for validation of a new approach to reproduction of sound that I'm developing. I believe it is uncharted territory. Being as I said uncharted territory, I am having much difficulty proceeding on my own. 
n80, old blues recording is a good example, thank you for sharing that.
geoffkait, thanks for Moodies quote. You are very perceptive in being able to take that leap and remind us of the blurring of senses, If I am to understand your meaning. I don't think I am going to find the dialog I was hoping for and nobody replied specifically to my question in my post about disregarding specs in favor of emotional connection.
No disrespect intended, maybe this subject has been beaten to death on SET / horn forums and someone can point me to a good forum of that kind. I thought audiogon was the big daddy of audio forums and this was the place to go to for all things audio and it might very well be.
So if anyone has anything to say no the subject I am asking about, please chime in. Or else I will continue on my own, It's very lonely out here, in the "uncharted territory".

Sorry for the typo, meant to say, if anyone has anything to say ON the subject please chime in.

It is the chords, melody, harmony, counterpoint, inversions, etc. in music that evoke emotion. That can be provided by even a car radio. Higher quality reproduction has more effect on the intellectual properties in music.

bdp204, Interesting point! would you say that chords, melody, harmony, counterpoint, inversions, etc. in music that evoke emotion comprises most of what we seek to attain?

There are times when I get more involved through better sonics, but there are also times when I'm engaged thoroughly through the crappy laptop or whatever. So much depends on mood in my estimation.
In writing about Atomic Rooster's Death Walks Behind You (a great heavy rock album if you haven't heard it), I saw the connection between the senses, noting that if I were a synesthesist (one who experiences sensory phenomena through other senses, e.g. hearing music as color), the sound of Vincent Crane's organ would be the odor of overripe flowers, a morbid sound—the smell of death. 
No question music triggers emotion, and that can be without highly  fidelis reproduction.
