"are you listening to your self"
Nope, I'm listening to music and working on folks' systems who have Class A, AB and D. No need to guess George when I'm doing. Oh, and since you mention roomtune, go ahead and type roomtune into a search engine. RoomTune started with me George. How do you think the hobby got the term room tuning. Look it up for yourself in TAS, Stereophile or any other audiophile magazine when they covered "RoomTune" from 1990 on. This is where you insert your snappy put down_________:) But just remember George those magazines have already been printed many years ago. It's call audio history. You don't have to like it, just like you don't have to like Class D amps. You also don't have to like me, but your missing out on a fun audio guy.

I think some guys here try to hard to be relevant and it causes them to become the opposite from what the hobby is and is about, the enjoyment of listening to music. I think most here have experience with A, AB and some D. And with that experience a respect is given to all the amp types. I personally think the OP is pretty clear. "the future of audio amplification" It's not a trick question, and it's not a put down for what any may like the most. Trying to tell all of us that we're going to someday see innovation stop, well that's simply not going to happen. I don't care if the next Class is W, innovation is the future.
