sound of rectifiers

86.133.137.175

Hello

Question: Why do different rectifiers sound so different? A 5U4 sounds better than a GZ37 and a 5R4 sounds better than either in my semi choke input (2MFD res cap 6H first choke) PSU in my SE amp where all three types are running within their ratings and produce much the same B+ volts. Weird isn't it?
