set vs otl, which is the most musical


Set and otl amps are almost opposites in terms of many aspects of circuit design. Which of the two designs is the most musical (define musical in your own terms as there is likely not to be a universal definition acceptable to all). Which do you prefer and why?

Nice as SET's are, they are always a bit different, specially in the high frequency Area... I own OTL's from Atma-Sphere, and in my opinion, that's the Real Thing (or very close to it). They combine the best from all worlds, Body, a High Frequency Range to die for and a holographic speed which has to be heard to believe.
But, you need a matching speaker to get the best out of it ( 8 ohms+).
