The nature of tubes will set you in a collision path with your heat issue. Even my 300B tubed amp which produces a mighty 9 watts per channel feels hot. A 75 watts, all tube, you can just imagine! I also live in the NorthEast but have an AC.
To Hot to Handle?
I have been contemplating the purchase of a tube amp. However, one of my concerns is the possible heat issues associated with running a tube amp (or mono blocs) with 12+ tubes during the summer in the Northeast. I do not have central air in my apartment.
Would it really be unbearable? I would appreciate comments from anyone with such experiences/solutions. Or, are there any 75+ watt tube amps in the under $2500 new/used category that don't run hot?
Thank you in advance,
