Anyone had a chance to compare yet?

(The Japanese version is SICP-10089)

The Japanese SACD is not a SHM-SACD.

I don't have the MFSL yet.

It uses the original mix, while the 2 japanese SACD reissues use the Mark Wilder remix. So it's not about mastering differences only.

I didn't know that. Look forward to the MFSL version.

Did Wilder DSD convert? Here there is talk of a HDCD converter

I stand corrected - I meant the hybrid version; I should know, as I just ordered it a few weeks ago! Corrected the thread title.

But to the point - can't wait to read a comparison of the two.
