Phil,Correct me if I am wrong but, it seems like the problem with most OTL's out there is that the output stage topology is basically paralleling a bunch of triodes in order to lower the output impedance. SET's on the other hand and even Push/Pull SET's like the Amity are unique in that they have ONE or at most TWO output DHT's. This gives a sense of detail as well as dynamics which is harder to achieve in OTL's. It also can be used with just as many varieties of speakers. A 45 for example is comfortable with 103dB speakers while a PP DHT like Amity is comfortable with 90dB+ speakers. I am not entirely sure if it is necessarily true that power corrupts although that is a tough argument to beat when you hear a 45 Cobalt Parafeed SET feeding a pair of ORIS horns. But thank you for stating your favorite topologies, that is definitely an interesting way of looking at it.
