As mentioned, though, the most important factor would be the quality of the source that was used and to a much lesser extent how it was converted to digital.
Here's hoping for true source remastering!

Exactly. I'm a sound engineer, remember?
That's the point I was trying to make, but not as well as you did.
I don't think there's a discernible difference to the average listener when it comes to these tracks. If you've got a nice receiver and some quality towers or something... then yeah possibly.
And
Dr. Zub, thanks for your break down. Once I get my "studio" set back up I'd like to give them a proper listen and see if these versions are a more enjoyable listen.
