to me a Schottky is a Schottky; I've never compared brands. Likewise, for a UF or Stealth type. Funnily enough, the only thing I can say for sure is that I heard a definite difference in favor of Schottky when I replaced IXYS Hexfreds with Schottkys, in both a preamplifier and in amplifiers. Not night and day, but a bit better, less hi-fi-ish, with Schottkys. These observations are so tenuous that I would normally not mention it.
