Class D amps seem poised to take over. Then what?

I am certainly biased by my lifetime final amp being a Class D. But I know that after 30+ years of development, Class D seems to be on a high plain. I know there are now many, many companies focusing on Class D and, maybe, a good handful already as good as it gets. My Class D amp is as smooth and beautifully musical as a great tube amp and as punchy and detailed as a great SS amp. I am satisfied and done with my search. A class D amp has effectively taken me off the amp merry-go-round. It’s about time after 50 years. And, for me, this Class D is a milestone. Will all other classes of amps fade away?

@nonoise  or actually All Noise.
All our post were deleted.
You should really stop with these attacks.

I am not hiding and I have been involved with CAP for 20 years and have helped save 31 lives. What have you done?

pukeofearl, all Admin has to do is put everything back up and it would show just how big a liar you are. Now you're hiding behind deletions and hoping those who've already read them won't speak up.

@tvad all I did was ask a question.
@fiesta75 I really do not need any friends like the Pius @nonoise. I live in the real world not some little pond.

Well time to go,  have to run another simulator.

I am very sorry to see that this tread has devolved into petty personal. Please bring it back to the subject.
Interesting that one of the last CL D threads included many good comments about the Legacy amp. Believe rh67 was going to Legacy to audition it. Any result?
And in this thread, the “amp de jour” is the Technics. If I am not mistaken, that integrated is a digital amp not CL D.
Anyone ever owned a Spectron Musician? I had one years ago and loved it. It was one of the first CL D but used a big analog power supply with a large toroidal tranny. Had a great grip on the bass and music and sounded very really good. CL D has certainly evolved since the Spectron. Bruno P. Seem to be one of the geniuses of CL D, Alberto G. Of AGD and Ralph K. of A-S coming out with a CL D amp after 3-4 years of development.

I've read nothing but good things about the Rogue Audio Pharaoh.
I wonder if some of the complaints about the shortcomings off Class D are offset by the utilization of tubes...

Apologies to mglik,
but Earl, if you are going to continually use the word ’pious’, for Gods sake start spellIng it correctly!!!
I also find it odd that you continually say you are through, yet you keep coming back for more. It’s simple. See all those keys in front of you with letters on them? Stop pressing them.
