Class D amps


I'm looking at a Rowland continuum and initial thought Wow JR for less than $10k then I start reading class D amp design and there's several other brands that use class D and charge as if. Is the hi end trying to keep their niche regardless? I was so wrong when manufacturing went to china I hoped the production savings would trickle down to us, silly me. How long before the big name companies start charging 6 figures for class D which as it evolves will get better and cheaper at the same time. Does anybody see these guys charging proportionate to cost or will they still do what that do?

Get Red Dragon 500 monoblocks, same under the hood for 1/10th the price. But no fancy case.

$500 each vs $9500 JR Continuum 2
