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.

So I secured an Ortofon MC A90 cart with very few hours last night. It will need to be broken in... not a bad thing as it means I have many hours of listening pleasure ahead before stylus replacement. I will be giving my Shelter Harmony a rest and will give my comparo of both down the road. Still no pics yet of my system, but they will be fourthcoming when I make the time to take them.

I am curious what load impedance owner's of this cart like ? 10, 50, 100 ohms ? I probably won't get it in my possession until early next week. TIA
please forgive my last post. It was posted in the wrong forum. Should have been under my system thread in All out assault !
Digital has pretty much closed the gap with Analog, for all intents and purposes. I would argue that you can only tell the differences in direct side by side comparisons. Quite frankly, only the reviewers have time for that.

I had a chance to hear a Reel to Reel tape recording of Harry Belafonte, Live at Carnegie Hall at RMAF. They were demonstrating it in the Playback Designs Room and comparing it with their MPD-3 CD Player/DAC. The tape still sounded better, but not by a whole lot. The tape seemed to have better dynamics and jump factor. One could argue that they are different, but not necessarily better.
