When is digital going to get the soul of music?

I have to ask this(actually, I thought I mentioned this in another thread.). It's been at least 25 years of digital. The equivalent in vinyl is 1975. I am currently listening to a pre-1975 album. It conveys the soul of music. Although digital may be more detailed, and even gives more detail than analog does(in a way), when will it convey the soul of music. This has escaped digital, as far as I can tell.

>>Digital is better than analog, especially 24bit devices<<

That is your opinion only and readers should take it as such. You do not speak for those of us who know better.

Audiofeel,

"You do not speak for those of us who know better."

The people in your cult calls the leader "Better"?

Nice of you to say that digital is better than analogic.
But at my home, it's the opposite !
And for many other people too.

Do you really have a high end analogic gear ?

If you only compare datas, you don't go far in music...

Adhoc,

"And for many other people too."

No for a precious few. 2000-3000 is not many people, and the number is shrinking everyday.

What's funny is I probably have more records than you do, analog's been around for my entire life and I think I understand it very well.

What is really high end analogic gear? How much do I have to spend in your opinion to get good sound from a used record? Tell me I'm interested in what you think it takes.

BTW; how many records do you own?
