I still think CD’s provide better sound than these supposed “lossless” FLAC files.

Absolutely the 192k from a sonic perspective. I asked about the HD tracks version of it in another thread but I don't think anyone bit. I've bought higher bitrate versions of other albums and noticed a difference - not a huge one but a difference nonetheless. More signal gets to us in many cases in high bitrates. There have been cases where albums have been "up converted" but on the whole, they really do offer a sonic improvement.

Is this 192k iteration the final version or did Richard do more tweaking after it?
