If Mr. Lucas was willing to replace / add digital images to enhance the story, then I would’ve guessed the same with audio. Time will tell if it really is about “film is never finished”.
The score undoubtedly has been re-transferred to digital for the new DVD edition. The current practice in film post production almost mandates this because of the exclusive use of digital audio workstations. That does not however guarantee how the new transfer will sound one way or the other.
On the reissues of "Superman", "Grease", and "The Exorcist" that I remastered the music score for, I went to great lengths to use the best original elements and to clean up the sound so that they would sound as close to current standards as possible. It isn't hard to do.
