Miles Davis The Original Mono CD's

Columbia just released remastered Miles first 9 recordings including Kind Of Blue, as well as some Collaberations with Gil Evans. Comes as a 9 cd set.

With all the other "remastered" versions of these classic recordings do you think the sound quality will actually be improved? Or is this just another way for the label to get more of our bucks?

I know KOB sounds great in stereo--how are the mono versions superior?

Much more realistic soundstage.
And incredible depth into the music. More like the musicians are in my room. Speakers totally disappear.

I guess I'm ignorant--since mono is one (or perhaps, two) dimensional how can there be the illusion of space or depth?
