Normally the brown and non black bases are considered to be low loss bases: meaning that they tend to NOT leak high voltage across the base between the pins. You will notice that many bases have ridges between the pins in order to lengthen the pathway between the pins and provide better insulation. This normally translates into more extended and clearer highs.

Of course YMMV,
