Joule-Electra does manufactuer and continues to manufactuer OTL power amplifiers, though none of thier products are offered in kit form.IMHO as a EE - I would not consider the Berning amp a OTL nor do I beleive David Berning refers to it directly as one (I have read through much of the technical info on this amps design - which is brilliant BTW). What David Berning has done is to design a different and very good type of output transformer device (i.e. a very clever circuit that emulates the current and voltage multiplying/dividing capabilities of a conventional transformer without the hysterises distortions that a coventional magnetic circuit transfomers exhibits).
Happy Listening,
