You said: "24 bit digital easily surpasses vinyl’s capabilities. Thats fact."That is not only wrong but it is very wrong. All you have to do is compare an audiophile LP to any DVD-Audio or SACD out there. It's really that simple.
No digital format completely captures the sonic realism of a symphony orchestra in a concert hall the way Vinyl does.
Digital even DSD and 192kHz is still too slow . No digital format has even close to the transit response of Vinyl, the huge soundstaging of Vinyl, the dynamic impact of Vinyl, the micro-dynamics of Vinyl, the ambiance of Vinyl or even the timbre accuracy of Vinyl.
Case in point Direct to Disc LPs are the highest resolution Vinyl as they use neither Digital or Analog tape .
Someday I hope Digital will equal the sonic realism of Vinyl but we are not there yet.
Have you ever heard a Sheffield Lab Direct to Disc LP? Sheffield Lab LPs have measured frequency response to 50kHz.
Have you ever heard "Pomp and Pipes" on Reference Recordings 180 Gram LP? The bass is the deepest I have ever heard in any format and the dynamic range of this LP was measured at 80dB with S/N ratio of 70dB. The bass on the LP version versus the HDCD version is more realistic, thicker and actually hits the pit of your stomach the same way deep bass does live.
Could be you have been listening to Recycled Vinyl LPs made by the major companies in the USA which have at the most 50dB dynamic range and usually much less?
Vinyl LP is still the highest resolution invented yet, but there is always hope someday that Digital will surpass the realism of Vinyl. SACD, 96kHz and 192kHz PCM come close enough for me.
You need to hear a great turntable before you make anymore silly comments.
