You can also still hear the artificial lisp on steves vocals. But the guitars are breathing a bit more and moving better in this. Drums will naturally sound a bit louder hear being before mastering.
This might just be the vinyl version then.

(I didn’t check the sample rate/bit depth though)
Could be, although from what I heard so far it sounds like the same sonic press just obviously different medium destination. Although with some low end clean up to spare the lathe.
I have listened to the "hi-rez" files too and they don't sound that much better. I mean, who knows what these things are really. Somebody can have a truncated file, re-export it as 24-bit 96KHz and say "look high rez files!!"
