Class D is affordable and sounds as good or better the SS/Valve why buy anything else ?


I have spent a fair amount of my hard earned money on big ticket brand new SS and VT/Valve amplifiers over the years without hesitation, with state of the art 2019 class D amplifiers becoming cheaper and sounding better, i wouldn't join in again.

For older technology amplifiers SS VT/Valve to compete with State of the art class D, Their prices are going up and up.

One example is Pilium Audio from Greece or Bulgaria their Divine Line the prices are all over £100,000 for their pre amps and power amps, I know the UK importer he said they sound OK,

Another example FM Acoustics again up to and over £100,000 for pre and power amps. i have owned FM Acoustics pre and power again their OK,

I am not saying they do not sound good, i am saying why spend this much when state of the art class D probably sounds as good now and can only improve with the GaN capacitors and is nearly up to 100 times cheaper.

Is there still a market for multi thousand £$s SS or VT/Valve amplifiers ?

When class D finally overtakes SS VT/Valves what will people do with their multi thousand £$ amplifiers, keep them knowing there is something better ? Or will we see the market flood with exotic used amplifiers ?

Digital technology is rapidly growing pace and becoming cheaper, with GaN capacitors being introduced the sound is going to get better and better and will slowly or quickly become even more affordable.

If you had 50,000 to spend on an Amplifier, would you buy a high ticket SS amplifier and hope for the best ?

Would you stay safe and go with high ticket valve amp, class D can never match good valves right ?

Or would you sit tight and see how the GaN capacitors can further improve the performance of state of the art class D ?

Please feel free to join in, everybody is welcome, i think its a very delicate/touchy discussion for some people with big bucks invested in older type amplifiers.

So when did these assessments take place? What gear are you referring to not sounding as good? How is that post providing anyone reading this thread with useful information? 
Attention all class D fans! The opposition has an extremely weak case wouldn't you say??
The oppisition? Are you a bot? How are you allowed to advertise on these threads? No one I know out of all my audio friends owns class d. Why? because they don't sound as good, or we would all own them. I have been in the industry in sales and manufacturing for most of my adult life and I know what I am talking about. I have personally had first hand experience with most of the biggest and best the audio industry has to offer, but of course the amp you make is better that any of them 😂👍🤔 the only digital amp that has ever impressed me was the Bel Canto Black system, and John Stronzer has far more experience than you designing and building class d amps.
Mike I am going to send you a pm I have some questions about your new pure music jr I am very interested!
I'm no longer selling any of the amps I have spoke of here. So no advertising here. The bottom line is if you have no experience with today's class D, then none of your posts regarding todays class D are relevant. I think that's a pretty easy thing to understand for most people.
