Interesting, Wolfie, that you should mention the late Lars Fredell ("The World's Greatest Audiophile"), as just the other day I happened to be reading his brilliantly written and informative review of a Tenor OTL amplifier. Very sad that he passed away at only 58.
Unfortunately I never had the pleasure of meeting him, or of sharing a listening session with him or his close colleague "Sam Tellig" (formerly of Stereophile), even though I live in the same general neck of the woods as they did at the time. In those days my work was sufficiently intrusive on my time that just being able to listen at home was a special occasion. But eventually I got my priorities in order :-)
Best regards,
