If you can hear a difference in rectifiers, either the rectifier is substandard or there is a problem in your power supply (design or faulty part). What follows the rectifier is an extreme low-pass filter. If the power supply and the rectifier are up to snuff ANY properly functioning rectifier should sound like any other.
One respondent's answer of a slow-warmup tube makes sense, not for sound quality but for tube life of the other tubes.
