partly true, but old can still be way better then new, for example sennheiser HD600 is still way much better then many same price headphones
if you're comparing the Sennheiser HD600 to lifestyle headphones than yes. AKG, Beyerdynamic, Shure, Audeze, etc put out great headphones every year.
a flagship D/A converter or CD Player is going to age slower than a entry level product. I bought my dad a HRT MusicStreamer II ($199) years ago because it was a popular entry level D/A converter that could handle 88.2Khz. today you can get USB bus powered D/A converters with chips that can do more things, better USB receivers, DSD support, 192Khz upsampling, etc. the Schiit Modi is a better D/A converter than the HRT MusicStreamer II.
