otl vs push/pull


Can anyone share their impressions of a p/p sound vs a OTL amp sound. My speakers can handle an otl amp, coincident partial eclipse. It's been suggested I take a look at an otl amp as it would be a significant upgrade over my Cary sli-80. I do not have any dealers in my area, so I can not audition an OTL.
Thanks
Mike

I think Tvad's idea is sound. I would also go to the Atma-Sphere homepage, read Ralph Karsten's white papers and some of the reviewers' impressions to give you an idea. Ralph's writings are uncontaminated by the usual hype. He is a man who can be trusted.
I myself run p/p monos and Ralph's 220 watt monos in my configuration driving the big Sound Labs. I like the sound of both, but for delicacy, air, bloom to my ears the Atmas play in a league of their own, especially in my configuration and room.
