This was previously issued on SACD by EMI. I'm not sure about spending all that money on a new issue...

I think this is another remaster. I did byy the Tower Records Klemperer Dvorak 9, and it states 2021 as remastering date, so definitely not the same as the EMI SACD release.
I cannot compare sound of both SACD's, but Tower records sounds clearly different from Klemperer Legacy RBCD. Less prominent, but better defined and more beautiful bass, highs somewhat brighter.
