Dynalite, my strobe of choice, 1/700.
Broncolor A4, as low as 1/80 and 1/240.
Profoto Acute 2 2400, 1/320.
Norman 400B, also a strobe of choice, 1/900.
etc....
s.d.

Many if not most simple strobes allow control of flash duration...
with any thyristor flash, the brighter the light the longer the burst.
Generally duration ranges from 1/20,000-1/50,000 or so to about
1/2000-1/5000. It would be simple to test you hypothesis, but I doubt
very much that variance within these speeds is enhancing the look; I
suspect it is the addition of ambient light through a longer
exposure...

Which is why the generator and separate flash head system is
preferred, as the duration of the burst can be controlled.
