" Critics of OTL amplifiers will call them harsh, brash, and solid state sounding."
I love OTL amplifiers, and I have made quite a few. I would agree they sound more like solid state, certainly in comparison to SET amps. Frankly, I think that is because solid state amplifiers (good ones) are closer to an uncoloured and accurate reproduction. Amongst tube amplifiers, OTL are the ones that are most accurate in their reproduction, and thus they sound closest to solid state.
