I was reading a review of the Feliks Audio Euforia tube headphone amp and ran across this line:
"A really good OTL design makes your transducers sound like they are direct-coupled to the music, and that is precisely what the Feliks Audio Euforia does to your headphones."
I'm not really trying to start a debate about this particular headphone amp, but what does that line by the reviewer even mean?
Or, if we just assume that it's audio reviewer gibberish...
What are the alleged benefits of OTL amps?
And are those benefits different for headphones vs speakers?
