6bq5 or el84(m)/6pi?

Have been listening to my magnavox pp 6bq5 amp with vintage tubes. Impression is sweet without cloying. Some deep bass missing. I know the limiting factor is usually the transformers, but would I gain some true (non-bloated) bass by rolling to an el84/el84M/6Pi tube without losing the air and sweetness?
