   OT(?) Which CD better?

   My first post here, please be gentle....   
      
   I just saw one of my old favourite CDs (and an excellent yardstick for   
   judging stereos or speakers) in a 'specials' bin. It's Rickie Lee Jones'   
   eponymous album from 1979.   
      
   I'm in New Zealand and my copy, which I bought in about 1980 and gets   
   listened to at least weekly, was manufactured by Warner Music Australia.   
   This copy that I just bought (even though my original is still in perfect   
   condition I like it enough to buy a second copy) is made in Germany by   
   Record Services GmbH, Alsdorf.   
      
   I was just wondering, is there likely to be any difference in quality /   
   sound between them? (My main system is limping while the main speaker's mids   
   are getting re-coned and my back-up speakers are fine for HT but not for   
   critical audio reviewing.)
