Swing Time (1936)

2005 R1 Warner DVD: Fairly muffled, with clear signs of destructive filtering.

2019 Criterion Blu-ray: The first ten minutes sound like the DVD. Everything after has a bit more hiss reduction. There is a notable bass boost. It's obvious that this track was derived from the DVD mastering.

Perhaps the Image Entertainment and Criterion LaserDiscs sound better.
