Dark Side of the Moon 30th Anniv Album

I purchased two copies of the recently released Floyd "Dark Side of the Moon" 30th Anniversary album. According to the sticker on the album it is pressed in Holland. Our initial listening impressions are that it is lacking in "spaciousness" in the high end details and sounds boomy. Thinking it might simply be my system we put on a MFSL recording of Eric Clapton's first solo album; it sounded fine....crisp, clean bass, good soundstage. The Dark Side went back on; dull, boomy. We then tried some jazz albums like Coltrane and Modern Jazz Quartet with the same results.

Anybody else have a listen to this album yet?

For some reason, i'm thinking that Alan Parsons prefers DVD-A over SACD. As such, he might be playing games with those that want to make use of the masters for something that he does not agree with or support. This makes me wonder what was used for the multi-channel SACD release though ??? Should i have read all of the footnotes on the disc liner ??? : ) Sean
