Stradivari violin


12 years ago I've been listening to Moscow Virtuosos performing with no microphones in one of the best philharmonic halls in Kiev.
The soloist-conductor Vladimir Spivakov was performing on Stradivari's violin.

Is there any ways to record/reproduce Stradivari violin so that we can distinguish it through the speakers?

If anyone had a chance to listen to Stradivari violin on the live concert, please describe any kind of system if the one exists to record/reproduce the way that you can say that the musician plays on Stradivari violin but not on any other...

I do believe that it's not possible to distinguish through any kind of speakers.

A great responces! THANKS! I was reading with pleasure. I know musicians that very often can tell who's playing and on what instrument(brand) not through the speakers though -- never tried to check.
BTW does Izhak Perelman have Strad?
