From what I can see in the demo the room would have a fair amount of medium reflection, but would also have a lot of attributes that very few of us would ever consciously try to incorporate.
Most folks would probably put the 102 pretty squarely in the middle of the cost vs. sound quality formula, so I'm interested in what some of you more knowledgeable might think of the demonstration and resultant sound. It certainly seems like something that is in agreement with what the OP is trying to accomplish.

Sounds ok. Nothing special (except Tommy playing of course). Normally I would not compress the pre-recorded signal.
