The pure audio "should" be better, but...?[/QUOTE]
To cut a long story short.
I prefer the DVD-A over the Blu-ray Pure Audio disc.
There is a very factual and honest review here (the first one)

Also another thread here that might be of interest:

DVD-A has an insane dynamic range, no wonder you like it. Of course, you need powerful equipment too fully enjoy it.
I believe they reduced dynamic range on Blu-ray to make it more compatible with 99% of the surround systems, which are not audiophile at all.
But don't think it's necessarily a downgrade. Returning to the original album dynamic range (of the mix), and still keeping the benefits of higher resolution, could be a good thing for the musical perception itself. As impressive as it is, DVD-A has some distracting "Industrial Light & Magic" moments.
I prefer the stereo 24/96 LPCM containing an almost flat transfer of the 1/4 inch original mix master.
Well, did you not all hear something good? :-D

The stereo 24/96 LPCM on the DVD-A is way too loud for my liking, see this thread:

Yes, not such a flat transfer. Only a flat sound.
Check your mail.
Yes, in no way a flat transfer.
