I don't know why your fixated on the Transcendent, but OTL with ESL, especially a high impedance ESL like the Quad 57, is THE way to go. Choose from Transcendent, NYAL, or original Futterman or go circlotron with Atma-sphere (my favorite, obviously). The fully balanced, circlotron output, no NFB, Atma-sphere amps have much to recommend them vs the others, but that's for another question.

Not sure how you determined I am "fixtated" on TS but thanks for the advice.
OK, so I can't type.
I apologize if the word "fixated", even properly spelled, came across as a negative. I only meant to say there are other good choices among OTLs, as well as the TS. I also meant by implication that the TS is a perfectly OK choice, and anyway you were not asking for help with the choice of OTL. Back in the day, it is said that Julius Futterman was stimulated to produce a commercially viable OTL by the very existence of ESLs like the Quad 57 and the KLH9.
No problem Lew! I was not offended and appreciate your advice. I have since read a few more of your posts and others on the OTL forum.
I can't believe I misspelled fixated! I am a member of the 2% club; in the top 2% spellers in the US so it is very embarrassing!
I came in second in the state of Connecticut, in the state spelling bee. Thus, at least as of age 14, may I have qualified for the top 1% (one of the top two spellers in one of the 50 states)?
I'm not that good these days.
2nd in Conn is light years ahead of 2% in the US. In no way would I try to out speil you. 😉

Contrary to what you wrote, I would think that second in the whole USA is a much larger bragging point than second in the tiny state of CT. And anyway, age has taken its toll on my spelling. Do you mean to say that you were second in the National Spelling Bee? Now THAT is a big deal.
"you're", not "your". I hate that.

"Let's eat, Grandma!"
Punctuation can kill.
or chord not cord for power cord. But actually you can edit the first post so nobody will know. No need for a second one. If you are logged in you can edit your own posts. You'll see edit just under the title of the post once you've opened the post as long as it is one of you're posts.......just kidding; your posts.

So, I corrected myself in a second post.
