CAT JL-2 vs Tenor 75Wi Wp

Because I was so satisfied about sound quality from Tenor 75Wi on Wilson WP5.1 speakers I dont know if I am convinced to buy me CAT JL-2 Mk2 power amp?
In my previous thread I asked about differences between CAT and Lamm amps driving WP 6 or 7 but I steel dont know which amp to buy! The problem is I can not go and listen to CAT and LAMM on WP speakers because we dont have dealers in my countrie which have all this stuff!
Tenor 75Wi(OTL) was incredible in my mind but how would you describe differences between it and CAT JL-2?
Thank you.

FWIW Avalons are a very linear load impedance and so larger tube amplifiers in general have no problem with them.

The Watt/Puppy 5 has always been an easy load and is probably a little easier to drive from what I've seen, but its nice to have the extra power if its available; 60 watts is OK but 120 or more helps a lot.
