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?

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.
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...
"Dead bodies attract dead bodies."
What does that even mean?
Also, it certainly doesn’t seem that anyone is looking for validation.
It appears to simply be a thread asking due to the advancement of the technology and subsequent sound quality, if class d is the wave of the future of amplification.
Does that mean you are addressing another member and not me, so you are denying me an explanation, or do you mean that you will not engage me in conversation at any time?
It is a rather cryptic statement. 
 Skynet will take over and we will all be servants to the robot kingdom. Forced to listen to Industrial Tranzsedentic Music for the rest of our existence.
I hope not, that tranzsedentic music is the worst....
