On the contrary, I think that class A and B solid-state amplification will be going the way of the carburetor. Given the economics of manufacturing and distributing products using class D technology, the giants of the consumer electronics industry won't have it any other way.Cynicism aside... what I heard a cheap-ass Panasonic XR45 do when connected between a DAT machine (playing my own recordings) and a pair of VR-4s was reason enough to believe class D technology may represent the way of the future. Such an inexpensive product "shouldn't" have been able to provide such a high degree of transparency, neutrality, dynamic range, and bass control, but it did. It was a little edgy in the upper midrange, but that was the only obvious flaw. If that's what an early-generation, mass-produced amplifier can do, I think the future is very bright for class D.
Sure, class D still has issues, but so did fuel injection :)
