I have the mono vinyl version of "Pet Sounds" and there is tape hiss, but I wouldn't call it noisy. Production techniques from the 60s would make tape hiss hard to avoid if you were doing numerous overdubs and mix downs. They only had an 8 track recorder and no noise reduction.
I honestly don't understand what the quality of any Pink Floyd recording has to do with "Pet Sounds". They weren't recorded at the same studios, they used different engineers, different producers and different recording equipment. And that doesn't even address the differences in the remastering stage.
