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 can't stand the hiss and pop of LPs. True great analog may be the one and only original open reel tapes. LP is a CD equivalent to the Master tapes.

With proper DAC, output stage design and implementation, digital will win over LP if you consider ALL aspects of listening music: black background, dynamic range, details, etc. LP may edge out in a few areas, but OVERALL digital will win.
