Because you just replaced all the tubes, it very well could be a tube problem. Did your amp have the same issue with the old tubes?
Your going to have more compression on the 10 watt setting, also, it should feel easier, or smoother to play. The 90 watt setting should be bolder with more punch, it shouldn't have any flub if your settings are the same as on 10 watts.
You may just like the 10 watt setting more. The 90 watt setting can be hard to get along with if you like more compression and a softer feel, especially at very low volumes.
I would make sure your old tubes reacted the same way. Just because they are new, doesn't mean they are good. In my opinion, at low volumes, there shouldn't be enough of a difference between 90watts and 10 watts to think there is a problem. At conversation level volumes, the biggest difference will be in feel, not as much in tone. The louder you turn it up, the bigger the tonal difference.
