Which mix is better? DM

Did a fresh reamp and new mix of an album I have recently finished.
For the new mix I dropped the quad tracked guitars and went with double track instead with triple recto left right. The original mix had recto and 6505 l/r.

The quad guitars have more meat and sound more brutal BUT the dual track has more clarity and sounds more sharp/crisp

Both versions work tbh id let the band decide, If i had a gun to my head id go with the dual tracked version as i like the clarity it gives on the fast picking parts its more precise, but id lower the guitars a little you mixed them rather loud on the new mix they are getting in the way of the vocals the balance was a bit better in the first mix.
