OTL

Output Transformerless

Audiophile speak for "I spent big money on ancient tecnology because I'm better than you"

This is an amplifier design used in vaccuum tube headphone amplifiers where the output transformer is omitted, making them cheaper to produce, while milking audiophiles for every last cent. In other words, pure profit!
I love the sound of vinyl through an OTL amp and Grados
