The DC and Faces are from the same transfer, but in addition to having many glitches and too much post-processing added, the DC is also an earlier transfer. Don't let the name fool you - the Faces set has the advantage of lessons learned from the DC set.
And both sets have the final battle in CAV.

The difference between CLV and CAV also depends somewhat on the LD-player, the video signal is usually processed by different 'analog' noise filters (or noise coring), the CLV signal passes through both high and low frequency filtering, CAV passes only through the low frequency part. And how well these filters are implemented in the player will of course affect the quality.
