RE: Ok, that makes sense. Now to improve....

Yes, the load line slope will decrease a bit. You will be able to swing further before you hit the nasties, however, this will require more drive voltage, and you'll be stepping this voltage down more to your speakers, so you'll generally end up with a little less power and a little less distortion (to a point).

If you have a 3.5K transformer, have a look at the 2A3 curves and draw the loadline at 325V/45mA.
