High End Amp Price Collapse musings

If Class D amplification becomes accepted by audiophiles there should be a glut of high end amps (Krell, Levinson, Pass etc) becoming available on the used market at prices a fraction of what they are now.

Think CRT TV when the flat panels began emerging.I think Ill hold off on a new/used amp purchase for a little while. Maybe I will bet a Boulder.

Has any one else considered this?

I directly compared the Spectron Musician III Mk.2 with all upgrades to my Sanders Magtech on my Magnepan 3.7i's.  With balanced connections, the Spectron did edge out the Magtech.  The only reason that I didn't buy the Spectron was that there was some weird interference issue that would just randomly happen.  It would manifest itself as static on my right speaker and sounded similar to cell phone interference.  

I'm considering the Merrill Veritas, which is also Class D.
