Michael’s breathy delivery and beatboxing become more intimate and distinct, especially on the title track, "Dangerous".

But does a higher sample rate and bit depth actually make an audible difference for a pop album from the early '90s? Early reviews and user impressions suggest it does. A listener on an audio forum described their first impression of the 24/96 FLAC as "fabulous... clearer and cleaner than CD, great body and heft to the music, much better imaging". It's this “heft” and improved imaging that separates the hi-res version from the standard CD.
Importantly, this 2014 digital release bypasses the aggressive brickwall limiting found on the Michael Jackson: The Ultimate Collection box set or the later Essential compilations. The dynamic range is allowed to breathe, preserving the transient peaks of Riley’s driving drum machines and Jackson’s percussive vocal tics.
