2) Triode connection – With this configuration, the lowest level of distortion is achieved but at the expense of output power. In the case of the Zeus, its power level in triode is high enough that it will likely provide plenty of power for almost any speaker load. - Page 7 With the Zeus amplifier the bias is set individually for each tube so that the correct operating point is assured. An added benefit to this approach is that, should a tube fail prematurely, the single tube can be replaced without having to purchase a matched set.
