...is it worth the upgrade from the original Varese release?
The Quartet gets a bonus point for splitting the joined Varese track (Out of Work, track 3) into the original two separate cues (Out of Work 1 and Out of Work 2, tracks 5 and 8).
The Quartet loses half a point for spelling the track THE SIGN incorrectly on the tracklist (THE SING).
Well... I WAS referring to any improvement in the sound! What about that?
Like I said, nothing much in it, except for what I noted. Someone doing a side-by-side comparison would find the Quartet is very slightly warmer. If you already have the Varese, the only reason to get the Quartet is if you prefer the editorial changes I mentioned.
