" ... we know that these amplifiers have enough pure "guts" to drive almost any loudspeaker design. This is but one of the sonic benefits and should be consider a small part of the entire sonic package, which includes delicately handled inner detail, loads of spatial information, absolute focus on instruments and voices and a great deal of musical finesse."

The Golden Ear Award
by Jonathan Valin, Absolute Sound, December 2002 / January 2003
"I've picked the Tenor 75Wp OTL amplifiers because they have such a special combination of virtues. The Tenors mate the color, focus, "directness," and dynamic nuance of triode amps with the air, bloom, and spaciousness of pentode amps, and the detail, speed, and extension of solid state. I've never really heard anything like them in combination with the Rockport Hyperion loudspeakers."

Tenor Audio 75Wi Mono Amplifiers
by Marc Mickelson, www.soundstage.com, June 2002
"Tenor Audio is a relatively new company based in Montreal whose amplifiers seemingly went from 0 to 100 in a fraction of an audio second. I first encountered Tenor amps at Son & Image 2001, where they made memorable music in two different rooms, both of which we named Standouts. Since then, Tenor has shown at T.H.E. Expo in Las Vegas, where they were part of a Standout room, and Montreal again, with another Standout mention. On the heels of such positive exposure, arranging a review was logical and would allow comparison of the sound heard at the various shows with that in the listening room. Tenor Audio agreed, and the review was on."
