both the atmasphere ma2 mkII.2 and the Tenor 75Wi monoblocks were excellent on my watt/puppy 6s. both amps are OTLs and have great clarity and frequency extension compared to other tube amps i have tried. the atmasphere was considerably more powerful and is the more natural match for the hungry watt/puppy. the Tenor(which i have purchased) is the best amp i have heard but would be marginal on the WP. if you have a small room or don't listen loud then you need to hear the Tenor.
you can find upgraded atmasphere MA2's that are around $12k. new Tenor's would be somewhat more.
overall, don't dismiss the OTL direction. they are bombproof and have all the benefits of ss with the "breath of life" tube magic. the only issue is getting an OTL that properly matches with your speaker.
