    Quick OTL / transformer coupled question

    Very interesting thread! By sure OTL's, usually, improve their performances proportionally with the increase of the headphone's impedance. @ Hz_joe Then the amplifier "see" your transformer like an high impedance "charge", and the output impedance to the headphone is correct? 4:1, it means...
