Has anyone heard that ARC discontinued the Ref CD-9SE?


I just noted that a dealer member is offering an ARC CD-9SE for sale.  The ad mentioned that ARC discontinued the CD-9SE.  Has anyone else heard the same?  

Kinda' interesting since ARC released the SE version of CD-9 sometime in 2019.  Just guessing here, ... but it may have something to do with Phillips having discontinued manufacturing the Pro 2 CD transport.  Or perhaps, ARC may think that the CD media is passe and they squeezed as much juice from that media source as they could.

If so, ...onward to streaming.      

Thoughts??

The "powers that be" want to eliminate media you own and control. That way, they can monitor what you watch to determine the quality of your "citizenship" to determine your trustworthiness
Just get some audiophile rhodium plated tin foil hats.  Yeah, that's the ticket. ;)
