It's all about getting the right combination. I guess that would apply to about everything hi-fi!
Rectifiers can also make a big difference. I had been using a Mullard 6CA4,then a Amperex Bugle Boy with good results. Then I rewired the socket to accept a 6BW4. Put in a N.O.S. RCA blackplate- HOLY SHIT! 3D, transparency, much better bass and faster.
When you think you've got that magic combo- keep experimenting!

You are right, the rectifiers do make a bit difference. With the KT88s I had to roll back to 5u4g from 5u4gb, as the GBs just gave them too much boom.
