[QUOTE="netizen, post: 59184"] According to Zen they took everything, except original dialogue, straight from the source material(s). Whether the Treatment in the mastered versions, then the re-compression etc changed the tonal/aural quality that much is really hard to say. To my ears they sound pretty much the same, but that they have been treated, EQ'd and compressed to a very low bit rate. This does tend to alter the sound. Think of listening to a CD and then the same song as a 96 kbps mp3 it sounds different. If you notice, the Zen sample has the reverb, and the breathing apparatus effect removed. That alone, if they didn't have access to the master tracks, will take a lot out of the vocal dynamics and give it that gritty, sort of choppy flow. Then it gets compressed and other treatments and we're back to the circle of speculation. I have no way of saying for sure that this is what they have done, I am merely offering my opinion on the mechanics of why and how the sound could change, even if it was taken from source material.
