Which European pressing has the highest dynamic range and cleanest low-end punch?

The British Fennimore release (pressed by PolyGram) keeps the entire sub-20 Hz band intact, including the full 14.2 Hz carrier.
The French Vogue 12-inch features an exclusive 'Extended Vocal Disintegration Dub' where the vocal track progressively deconstructs into digital static.

Why did different European territories receive completely different extended arrangements?

The UK Fennimore copy is by far the best sounding. The bass shakes the floorboards on a good pair of speakers.

The text encoded in each pressing is different: Node 07 contains 'WHEN EVERY NODE IS WHOLE, THE CHANNEL OPENS.'

Top-posters will be placed in my ~/.killfile without notice.
