sure... a 2-tooth jump is noticeable... more noticeable, however, and appreciably better is that while both cassettes share the 25t cog in common and starting there, you have 3 lower and more evenly spaced gears above compared to just 2. Better yet -- and, a good trade-off for me -- you have more evenly spaced higher gears and wider by a bit when going to the 3 cogs below the 25, which you get because the new cassette loses the 12t cog.
