Yes! ^^^^There we can see the differences between the welded vs crimped plates.
Oddly, my experience with the old Svetlanna was the opposite. The welded plate version sounded much better than the non-welded. It could have been that specific pair, but the difference was large.

This is also true with Tungsram pre tubes...welded versions are better. This seems to be a brand specific difference then.
