I have the classic Klemperer but prefer the Collegium Aureum on DHS, for it's transparency.
Still, apart from the exquisite solo violin material in the Sanctus, I've not been able to grab hold of all the Choral fugues. I recall being mystified in a similar way by the 1st Mov't of the Mahler 8th but eventually everything clicked in a big way.
