Well, they are.  Speakers haven't changed much, but it's become hard
to buy a bad CD player or amplifier.  Analogue playback was never
going to be perfect, so there was some point in spending money
following the quest.  But it's not hard to grab digital data.  The
people who WANT to spend loads of money need very strong faith that a
$1000 CD player(and, Lord help us, $1000 cables too) really sound any
different.
