Wow, you seem to be quite the OTL collector! What are you going to do with all these amps?

I don't want to buy anything now--I just shelled out for a new van den Hul Frog, which seems to be really special. But I'd really like some comments on how all these amps you have compare, if you have the inclination. You seem to have:

NYAL OTL 3's (3 pair)
Futterman H3aa
NYAL--Hammond 509 ?
Transcendent Beast 6C33b (I thought he used to use 509's).

Are they all basically the same circuit? Do they use any power supply regulation?
How do they sound?

By the way, George Kaye, who has helped me with my OTL3's used to offer a conversion service to allow the OTL3's to use 509's, but he says good 509's are hard to get now, so it's not worth it.
