Does OTL pre-amplifier exist?

The amplifier in my second system is the Atmasphere S-30. It is an OTL amplifier. I enjoy its openness and speed. That brings me to this question. Does an OTL pre-amplifier exist? If it does, who are making such pre-amplifier?

Thanks in advance and happy listening.

IIRC there is a direct coupled version of the Cary SLP-98 available from Upscale Audio. I think it is called the F1.

All Supratek pre amplifiers from Mick Maloney are transformer coupled this is what their owners love about their sound.??
Preamp on the left with two domes being the output transformers, and the power supply for the preamp on the right
