In my experience, the long plates do sound better. I've always assumed it's because they are an older design.
IMHO, the older designs in anything are better. After the innitial design is proven, things like workmanship and materials quality go downhill for reasons of economy. Manufacturerrs find ways to cut corners and trim expense.
