Tbg,I emailed Ori about your not being able to find his webpage. Mapman,I would like to have more time to listen to his battery-powered Pre/Dac in my system, but for me, you're right about a date that will live in infamy. Some questions still arise in my mind. I would think that somehow the low resolution of standard cd could be heard, but I don't think it will be disturbing. If microphoning would be less ping-pongey with digital, I think that would help with the illusion of music(I'm thinking about one of the Dire Straits cd's.) I think I might prefer listening to mostly digital, but Ori showed that analog is a teeny bit more relaxing, but digital is not tense now(I feel it in my throat.). Analog seemed to fill the spaces between sounds a little unnaturally(cloudy?). Tgb, consider yourself lucky, as I've never heard digital that was music until now.
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.
