As my second son is a recording engineer, we experimented with this. The main issue is that the "ambience" of live venues is relatively uncluttered in the first 100 milliseconds or so, but in a listening environment, this space is filled with "early reflections" from the listening room boundaries. I was never able to solve it. Maybe my listening space is just too small.
As far as LF goes, I have not yet heard a possibility to trick the ears into believing that the long standing waves inherent in big spaces were actually being "created". Bass gets a certain texture when the wave is folded due to a too small space.Rerurn to Romy the Cat's Site
