Don't blame the Sovtek! It's not exactly the same rectifier as the Chinese tube it is replacing. Check the thread I linked to.
The change in the output voltage from the different rectifiers is likely the main cause of the change in sonics. The Sovtek's output voltage is likely higher.

Then, prolly should check idle dissipation measurements.
Thanks, Jim!
Not only that - but ALL the other operating voltages in the amp will be higher than they were, that can certainly cause tone changes.
