If the output transformer is dissipating less power what that means is more power is available to drive the loudspeaker.
It is more this reason that nearly all tube amps that have a 16 ohm tap will make more power into a 16 ohm load than they will into 8 or 4 ohms even if they have the taps for it. Mind you, its not a lot but there is a difference.
More bandwith usually translates to less phase shift. In a nutshell its a pathway to sounding more like real music.
