And I should point out that not only is there still a transformer in the circuit, but many other components are added, including transistors.  I have no doubt that this topology give reduced measured hysteresis distortion, but I wonder what all the other components are doing to the sound?

It really depends on what you focus on in sound.  If you value inner detail, speed, and clarity above all else, I bet you would love these amps.  I remember Berning amps as being very accurate in a unassuming way.  Still for me there is more to music than inner detail, which is why I don't own the Berning amps any more.
