The frequency response of the loudspeaker will not change if the amplifier's output impedance is very low on all taps. Even if that condition is satisfied the amplifier's frequency response will change a bit. How much depends on the quality of the transformer. The main difference is the voltage (power) available to drive the loudspeaker. The damping factor will change, which effects the sound quality in ways not related to frequency response. The load line presented to the tubes will be different as well. This will change the sound as well as effect power capability.
