Just read Fremer's (short) review and while I get what he's saying, I don't think he covers all bases, kind of similar to his "Trumpet" review.
OK, I've been a good boy, time to Rock a while....

Rolling Stones "Let It Bleed" 
2003/ABKCO/DSD
"ATMP" Lp 1
original

On "Let it Down", all of the instruments are crammed into same space, the center stage. In my room, it’s hard to hear the piano, however when I walked out of the room, the piano was easy to hear.

Overall, as I mentioned earlier, the sound is more open without the warmness of the new version. Cranking this lp up to the max isn’t enjoyable. Too in your face.
BTW, I've added compressed (can) air into my vinyl regimen. It requires a small learning curve but is very effective. You'll notice this if you have a great LED light focused on your tt.

Look forward to hearing your impressions of the new arm @j_husker ​​​​​​.
