[QUOTE="n2audio, post: 8678414, member: 540940"] Because the rich old dudes that generally buy that stuff have only ever known A/B (or A), believe it sounds better, and have no interest in class D amps even if they're exceptionally high quality. Those exclusive, high end brands have no interest in selling amps to the masses for a few percent more than it costs them to produce and distribute them -- many companies have tried, and it always ends up tarnishing their reputation (Lanzar, Soundstream, PPI etc). I don't think it will be long until those brands start offering small, efficient amps. I expect they already know the sound quality is there. They're just appealing to their current clientele.
