question.. what's the difference between the is set and the other two (three?) sets you have already released?

ABC just keeps getting better. It is like a musician who records a song and thinks back to it and knows how he can fix it.

ABC is only trying to make these soundtracks as perfect as possible.

I have downloaded several versions of his ESB sets and each susscessor dominates the previous release.

The crispness becomes much better, and these new samples are so much more natural. The original releases had the channels leveled in a way that made things sound to far away. Or somewhere behind you. Cellos cut far to the right with no bleed to the left. It just always felt to manufactured, and ABC fixes that. It feels (as I should know) like an orchestra playing, rather than a recording of an orchestra playing.

No, it isn't crystal and reverberated. It is natural. Too many engineers these days, try to add extra highs and more lows and reverb to something that shouldn't. His equalization is that of a professional. He is to soundtracks as Ady is to Fan Edits. Quality Quality Quality. That is why I have compared him to Deutsche Grammophon.
