Lowering Tube power amp output


Hello everyone,

Wanted to ask the tube power amp users here if there is a way to reduce power output/ heat generation from the amp. I have a Rogue Audio Zeus amp which is rated at 200w/ channel. Can removing some power tubes reduce output power and lower heat dissipation? How can I lower its power draw effectively without causing any damage to unit

On my Fender Twin Reverb I can remove either the two outer tubes or the two inner tubes ( four 6L6GC's in a row) to reduce power by half. You can probably do the same on your amp. Contact Rogue to find out which pair to remove.
