Roger probably knows more about tubes than all the rest of us on this circle combined. Why not go to his circle and read his comments directly?
Ok, I read a little bit of that.
I would not apply the light loading method as a general rule of thumb that works for all amps. For example, one thread explains how to run two positive taps at the same time without the ground wire (or zero return in this case) to make a 2 ohm tap. I would not recommend this as a universal experiment on someone else's amplifier without knowing how it is made. Check with your manufacturer before you do this. I'm sure that it's fine for Rogers's products, especially since he is the designer and he recommends that you try it. But even then,
he asks you to listen and decide for yourself.
There is another thread I read where someone tried light loading and found the sound anemic, and then he had to move his speakers to recapture the body of the music. That implies (to me) that he was starving the output tranny to achieve a different sound quality that intrigued him. He was not improving the power transfer to his speaker.
And there is another exchange with Ralph Karsten of Atmosphere who specifically recommended that you do not light load an amp, because it is harder on the tube and the transformer.
I guess that light loading could be something that works in some cases, but I would not recommend it as a universal truth.
