Tenor 75 Wi OTL


Just bought this OTL by Tenor.

Living in Destin FL and owning the Atmasphere S30 amp I could remove some power tubes to reduce the heat in the summer. Can this be done with the Tenor?

Kelly High End in Ca. who I bought from said the amps puts off very little heat after being on for a hour or two. BS from the seller?

Glory, Love your beaches,Destine and area is just beautiful and one of our favorite vacation areas in the U.S.

Tenor Hmm, I remember the flurry of excitement over these amps a few years ago. The Absolute sound declared them as the very best they have ever heard, well something on those lines, the usual. That along with of course the online buzz over these OTLs. Spread like wild fire though this happens frequently with some of the worst far over priced stuff on the market.
Hope you kepted your Atmosphere amps.
Glory if you must have vacuum tube amplifiers look for a pair of Lamm ML2 for your efficient speakers?but try first if you can.

I borrowed the Tenors at there peak of popularity tenor then floundered shortly there after for many reasons I suppose.
My ML2 are 12 years old and still fantastic. The ML2 changed some parts then later then onto the ML2.1 and 2 and for not the better.

Looking a little deeper at Tenor back then this goes to show you the company they kept at consumer shows and dealer show rooms with the likes of Pipedreams and Karma. Marketing know how of high dollar crap aimed at the gullible with deep pockets, and it works well.

But please give them a good listen to when they arrive just to see for yourself.
