    In reference to variant 6. Never being one of my fave Who albums makes it harder to assess fairly. Being used to an earlier Canadian MCA CD edition, The Who - The Who By Numbers, that is quite wide open, this remix sounds like it has been noise reduced and attenuated causing it to sound muffled. Then there's the bonus tracks which, unless part of the album proper, really should be on another disc or just don't bother, which would apply in this instance.
