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

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

Who has the French Vogue 12-inch? I will pay cash or trade rare synthpop vinyl.

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

Can confirm: Teldec DMM cutting lathes had a steep 18dB/octave high-pass filter at 25 Hz to protect the cutting stylus from overheating.
