UHD Blu-ray finally comes with a mono mix! It's a new mastering, which unfortunately removes most of the top end, taking a lot of life out of music and sound effects cues.
Unfortunately, the analog LD track has a fair share of distortion, so I'm sure some will find the restored track preferable. Both are included in this remux.
