I personally am going the other way. I have played double lip almost my entire life due to teeth sensitivity. I am now using single lip. So much easier to play in tune and my articulation comes easier as well. Now it feels weird to use a double lip. I also think when you are saying you "hear a difference" it might be more of a feel a difference based off your internal resonance with the instrument. That's something I felt too with it. Thought my sound was more robust with double lip, but in recording it doesn't sounds different to me. Maybe even more supported with single lip. Double lip connecting more of my facial features to the instrument makes the internal resonance feel bigger.

Your sound using single lip gives you more a traditional tenor sound. Your double lip sounds squeezed, smaller, focused and sound's ok...but your sound with single lip sounds great😮
