I have Linda Ronstadt's "What's New" on both vinyl and DVD-Audio and
in every way, the DVD is at least as good as the original, with the
bonus of no surface noise marring the beautiful vocal talent and
orchestral arrangements.

Recorded/mixed by George Massenburg at The Complex (probably with his
highly modified ATR-124s) and mastered by Doug Sax.

If either of the aforementioned engineers was involved in the DVD-A
remix, I'd bet on it not suffering too much.
