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.

BigKidz,

BigKidz,

I noticed you’re on a lot of threads marketing your DHT Dac and you claim yours will blow the rest out of the water. What are you actually selling?

I am familiar with all MSB Products, I was a dealer for them. I am very familiar with Lampizator Golden Gate and Big 7, they are all very good Dacs. I find the Lampi not real sounding, its like the tube bloom is overemphasized. It is Musical until you realize the amount of digital data being lost during playback. I think they are good dacs and it will appeal to some crowds. Personally I prefer a Tubeless Dac and then mate it with a Tube Pre-amp and Power Amp. This gives the best of both worlds.

Lampizator will never reach the MSB level for transparency. It seems to mask the Digital hardness by using many Tubes to my opinion.

I have had all the MSB Dacs in my shop ( Was a dealer for MSB) and surprisingly the best MSB dac for long term listening was the Analog DAC, with the Analog Power supply. It was the cheapest and the best sounding out of the bunch. The Diamond were going into the realms of fatigue and the highs just seemed over tipped or too forward.
