The manufacturers don't say 'analog' - you do.
They leave out what they do not want to emphasize. Every example you have given is an amp with an analog output to feed an analog speaker.
There's nothing wrong with switching amps. Only in your head.
Not me. I like some of the new ones.
And they are discrete output (not continuous), hence digital by definition. In the units I mention, the pulse-widths are digital, unlike all other (analog) switchers.
However, when you add the output filter, the output is analog.
My intent was to give those (who don't know) an option -without raising too much attention. Now that you *caused* attention, more people are probably going to look into this, as they should.
I am afraid to say that you deserve this attention because your understanding of the technology is simplistic and misleading. It does not help your cause.
