Of course it's remastered. This is the first issue of the Wilson versions. When something's remixed, there is no existing master, by definition, of the remix. A new master must be made.Regarding the need for another trip to the well, the 5.1 mix on this is stellar. Not a radical reimagining like Wilson's take on Close to the Edge, but an opening-up of the original mix - respectful of the past, but definitely bringing a new perspective to the piece.
No comparison to the 2002 Rhino Elektra DVD-A 5.1 by Tim Widener. It was one of the first hi-res surround discs I bought (heck, it was Yes - seemed tailor-made for the format). I was massively disappointed - found it congested, muddy and dark. Wilson lifts a veil and really sets you down in the middle of the band.
Perhaps in saying it was not remastered you are referring to the port of the '02 DVD-A on the Blu-Ray? Scratching my head as to why that was included, except maybe to keep the completists happy. I know I won't be listening to it.
