Hi,
Although the CD is sort of "gone," it's not really "gone" in the sense that what happened is that streaming took over, so instead of a disc holding 16/44.1 music files, some storage somewhere in the world does and that's now transfer wirelessly and/or wired through a DAC. So it's still here -- digital audio is -- but in a different way.
But I agree with you on the way audiophiles think. Class-D amps are fantastic today, but there plenty of great class-A and class-AB amps that many people will still gravitate to.
