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?

fuzzy one:  many performance car drivers use ultra high performance summer tires which CANNOT be used in cool temps, requiring the use of winter tires which make a huge difference in handling.  I personally use ultra high performance all seasons and winter tires, also a huge difference.

earlflynn:  I have a NAD M33 with the latest Purifi amplification.  Have not had a single issue and it runs extremely cool and has great sound.  What NAD units are you referring to?

hshifi:  The NAD M27 uses nCore amplification, not the same as the NAD M33.
