Well, I find that the remaster is fine, but the remix really sounds pretty awful to me, in several ways:The percussion sounds awful, the top hat sounds like a wheelcover.
The trick imaging in Lazy doesn't work, it does work in the original and in the remaster (but not in the previous CD issue?) You figure.
Some of the echos have been removed in the remix. To me, that removes part of the interesting nature of the performance.
I liked the remaster because it finally got a good sounding version of Machine Head on CD. I haven't loaded the remix back in the machine except to check for sure that the top hat sounded like a hubcap.
