I have heard of and known a few audiophiles that go to great lengths to have sound reproduced as accurately as possible and spend enormous sums to accomplish that.
The term that was most silly in my view was holography; but I understood what was meant. The aforementioned audiophiles claim to recreate the spatial relationship between the physical locations musical instruments when recorded. The needs for recording and reproduction are entirely impractical and don't seem achievable for simple stereophonics, so it seems on the bovine scatological side of the olfactory sense. BUT, I have stood in and moved about a room that was carefully put together. In one part of the room one instrument (say clarinet) could be heard more distinctly than in other areas, and so on for other instruments, giving the impression that one was moving from musician to musician on a sound stage. Pretty clever, but outlandishly expensive.
