Ignoring the possibility that alignment geometry changed when switching screw sets, seems to me another potential variable contributing to the difference in sound you report might be the amount of torque used to tighten each screw. Was that the same for all sets? Also, I'm assuming you reset tracking force as necessary after installing each set? By the way, are you comparing 3 sets of screws (i.e., retipper's screws were different than the original Benz screws) or just 2? Interesting observation but not sure what to do with it. Detail on the changes you heard would be helpful....although I, personally, can't see myself switching out mounting hardware to "optimize" the sound from my TT.
