[current] after almost 2 years with this recorder, I am excited every time I pick it up to play. The sound is so round and full bodied that even a drone note is a pleasure to listen to. I have also come to like the slight "airiness" (or chiff) it produces. Could not recommend more.

It's my first and only tenor so I might sin of lack of experience/knowledge. The higher volume of air required generates an audible "whiiizzz", especially on the G, which feels like some of the air is getting out of the labium rather than inside the internal bore. Perhaps it's the same % of air as in sopranos and altos, the difference is made by the pressure hence the noise...
I checked the tuning electronically (Garage Band feature) and to hit some notes (F/G/A) of the main register I need to blow much more than for E/D/C in the same register, again the delta being felt greater than for smaller recorders and I don't know if it applies to all tenors or just to this one.

I absolutely love the beautiful warm, full sound of this recorder, especially in the lower notes. I also like its contemporary, sleek design. I've only had it for a week and I'm still in the process of playing it in so probably it hasn't reached its full potential yet, but so far I'm very happy. I really can't fault it. I bought a thumb rest as the instrument is a bit heavier than what I'm used to (I play the alto) and I felt that it was slipping away when playing the D. The bag is a little bit too small; the zipper hits the middle joint when I close it.
