How much difference do bridge pins make?

Does the choice of bridge pins make an audible difference in the sound of a guitar?
The guy I'm building guitar #3 for decided to try Tusq bridge pins, so I ordered a set. Curiosity got the better of me and I tried them in my guitar, replacing the set of dogwood pins I made when I built the guitar. I was somewhat surprised when I heard (I think) a noticeable difference. I think the guitar sounds brighter and more resonant.
Does anybody else have any experience with Tusq bridge pins that they can report?
