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.

Charles1dad, while I have not done a comparison of the Duelunds with the Urushi and other blocking caps, I do have two friends who have and both report the Urushis are both cheaper and better. I use them in everything where I can get them in.
Tbg,
One thing that's inevitable in high end audio is there's never unanimous consensus or universal agreement on anything. If someone found a better capacitor than thr Duelund CAST and for less money, more power to them.
All I can do is report my experiences and certainly for me the CAST is a terrific product. I'd recommend them without reservations. If others feel the same way concerning the Urushi that's good.
Charles,
We are finally getting there; take a listen to the MSB Analog DAC or the Light Harmonic DaVinci; both are really fantastic... hi-rez PCM sounds excellent and I think good DSD even sounds better.
Stickman451, I think DSD far surpasses HD PCM. I had many of my sacds playable off my music server and thought the DSD far superior to just playing the sacds. All was great, until my 09 Mac Mini stopped working and my new 13 Mac Mini was screwed up by Apple to get it to work with Windows 8. Many third party programs were screwed by Apple in getting the Mac to run on this worthless MS program. Soon I expect that these third party systems will be updated to work with the 13 Mac Mini. I dearly wish I could dump Apple, but the Remote app on the Ipad is great for running what Itunes thinks is its music data, and the Mac Mini still has Firewire output.

All of this said, however, my Nantasis Lenco, Ikeda 407 arm and Ikeda 9TT blows away even the dsd.
