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.

I think the answer is soon. It will be with a Lenco, a quality amplifier of the cartridge, and recorded at double DSD. I will probably hear it this year.

I found it as soon as I stopped looking for something wrong with digital. A new reference DAC has helped.

Maybe, but he'll have higher priorities I'm sure.

...unless digital is maybe the thing that creates a lot of the unrest in the world maybe? You, know, the "digital edge"?

They say the lord works in strange ways, after all.

On the otherhand, unrest has been around since way before digital, so maaybe not.
