6SN7 Heaters affecting sound incredibly?

I just last night bypassed the 4700uf 6SN7 heater reservoir caps in the linestage of my P4 monos;

After the diode bridge (mundorf mlytics) with some Blackgate N types at 220uf.

Holy SH*** the increase in soundstage depth width and resolution is absolutely phenomenal!

How possibly or more to the point, how do the damned heaters have such a dramatic effect on the overall sound?
