Tenor 75 Wi OTL

The plate dissipation of the 6AS7G output tube is 13 watts for a total of 130 watts in the S30. The plate dissipation of the 6C33C is 60 watts for a total of 240 watts in the Tenor. The Tenor will run significantly hotter. It also has a fan which takes the heat away from the amp and spreads it throughout the room. I've been in a fairly large room in the summer with the Tenor and within ten minutes I started sweating. It did sound terrific, however.

I should add that for the Tenor, it's 240 watts of dissipation per monoblock so the actual dissipation in your room is 480 watts.

Gee T thanks for the great news. You made my day. My wide will love this extra hear in the summer.

Looks as if the seller gave me BSHSCS and cat $hit all in one pile.

I got a great price on them shipped to my door for 6K.

Sounds like I should unload them now and not even turn the space heaters on.

I can rebuy the S30. BB why do you think the AS is better?

You have to be kidding Glory 6K? that is a great price from their retail of 17k I believe. This was suppose to be the "it" of OTL amps and among the best period from what I've read and heard, Jtinn was a dealer and major proponent of this amp. I do trust your ears Jonathan. I only heard them once at a show with Pipedream speakers so have no opinion in anything familiar. I certainly would listen first before unloading and if you decide you really love them.....you might want to consider some kind of ventilation system but it seems from looking at your set-up with the staircase directly behind the speakers that it might be a bit of a challenge.
