Gunshots are one - the sound difference between a real gunshot and a high end sound system replaying a gunshot is huge.
Likewise, the sound of an old nokia ringtone (make by a piezoelectric speaker) can't be replicated by a modern speaker really. If you have thee two side by side, you can always tell which is which.
I wonder if a modern Fotoplayer could make use of that to make a market for itself?

Sure - it would be a 6 month passion project. But you'd get it done a lot quicker than the original designers took to make the thing out of carved wood.

At some point in my life, I’d love to witness someone playing one of those enormous Wurlitzer theatre organs that need basically entire buildings to house them.
