Given a highly treated and quiet enough room, with sensitive enough recording equipment (microphone and audio interface etc.), do you think it is possible to A) capture the sonic character of a speaker and B) distinguish the affect that other components in the chain (speaker cable <- amplifier <- preamp <- dac <- source) have on it through A/B testing? Consider that the recording will of course have to be played back on a similar chain again to make a judgement.
