Back on topic of ESB pressings, I own these:
(chronological)
1425-84 = analog only
SF148-1242 = Special Collection (JSC)
1425-85 = Pioneer Video, Inc. (PVI)
1425-84 = re-issue by Mitsubishi with diGital SOUND added (*)
1425-85 = re-issue by Technidisc

(*) It has digital sound, but might also have CX-encoding applied, which would be a mastering error. Analog tracks often use CX, but digital shouldn't. So we would need some CX decoder software, if such a thing exist.

 

Stupid question time........

Like most other Star Wars Digital Sound releases, does the Mitsubishi 1425-84 have Digital and Analogue tracks?? If so, could the CX on the box simply refer to the Analogue track and not the Digital track?

More than likely that is the case.  There's no need for CX on the digital track.
