Dark Side of the Moon - Is MFSL really all that?

So I got a copy of the MFSL pressing of DSotM. I haven't done extensive comparisons, but one major thing I feel is missing from my original CD (which I have no idea right now exactly WHICH CD) is the kind of surround effects present in some of the tracks. MFSL sounds more like an acoustic cut, while the original CD sounds like an effects CD.

Is this right, and what people like about the MFSL pressing? Help me be a cognoscenti please.

Never liked the MFSL versions, particularly the UHQR.  Too compressed, thin, and lightweight.  I like the original UK and German pressings.  I have also tried a number of reissues and don't like them either.

Found this in Wikipedia:

An obi (帯?) is a strip of paper looped around a book or other product. This extends the term obi used for Japanese clothing; it is written with the same kanji. It is also referred to as a tasuki (襷?) (another kimono accessory), or more narrowly as obigami (帯紙?, belt paper).
