When you hear the real thing, e.g. a Steinway Grand, a Stradivarius Violin, a Les Paul Guitar, etc., the ear knows what it hears.
When you record a Steinway or a Stradivarius or other acoustic instrument and play it afterwards, the sound you hear is from a speaker.
From that point I think you can compare a keyboard with the real thing.
So the ear doesn't know what it hears when it's from a speaker.
