-I've just done pretty much the same thing - except I chose 'After The Gold Rush' instead, it being one of my definite NY favourites.
While it does sound good (as you'd expect!), the really surprising bit is that the Foobar2k Dynamic Range plugin claims that the effective DR on the 24/192 version is slightly lower than that of my ancient CD rip. Not enough for me to notice a marked difference during initial listening - but surprisingly enough that I will see if I can find some other way of evaluating the DR. Hm, perhaps some Sox incantation can help me out.
It will be interesting to do a couple of ABX tests after work to see whether I can really tell the two versions apart; first impression is that it should be easy, as the noise floor on the 24/192 is significantly lower - perhaps I should add noise to the 24/192 at the same level as on my CD rip, so that I cannot use that rather simple cue to tell the versions apart.
This is going to be fun.
Have you tried this, or any other LUFS meter?
