[So here is my question. Can people with good digital and vinyl equipment comment on
the sound of Kind of Blue in CD vs LP (and maybe vs SACD as well)? Am i wrong to expect
the similar kind of involvement from digital sources as I get from vinyl?]That, my friend, has probably been the primary question about digital playback over the past 30+ years! You're not wrong to expect at least vinyl's level musical involvement, however, you may continue to be disappointed by the present state of digital - although digital playback does continue to progress closer to that end.
As someone who experiments with his own DAC designs, I'm currently of the opinion that the music is actually captured there, locked inside your existing CDs. That's the good news. The bad news is, it seems that the 'trick' with creating involving digital playback is in carefully attending to all of the many seemingly trivial details. DAC physical implementation details are as important as the design details. Just my two cents.
