I dunno, The Wind Waker HD used higher bitrate samples than the original, so the music was a bit higher quality. I wouldn't be surprised if Twilight Princess HD did the same.

Not sure of that. I extracted the samples from both versions of TWW and they were the same quality.

There is absolutely no question, Wind Waker's soundtrack was remastered. Very clearly- clearer at higher volumes.

Many instruments were replaced with new ones in TWW, but the technical audio quality remains the same.

Some sequences were remade 100% and rendered as streams while some sequences got random samples replaced (like Jalhalla, the accordion was replaced and the organ in Gohdan if I remember correctly) and others were identical to the original like Dragon Roost and Forest Haven.

Even the CD is locked at 32khz, but appears "higher quality" because of CD mastering. The old TWW CD and the new were mastered by different people in different decades.

An example of a clear difference between TWW and TWWHD, is Molgera's 2nd battle theme:

And as I said, some were 100% remade (although that tubular bell might be the same, hard to tell.) Man, the remade stuff truly sounds terrible. Like a fan project made by a 13 year old. Like the early ZREO stuff.

Oh, there's no doubt the originals are far better. It's really depressing. If they were going to change them at all, they should have put in at least a little effort.

Yeah. Gotta admit, that track was definitely butchered in the remaster. But in all honesty, do take a look at better song comparisons, such as:

TWW

TWWHD

Nintendo is f*cked. All the high quality firms are going down, like Sony did.
Mini Mario & Friends: amiibo Challenge? by mariofan12ify at 6:48 AM EST on March 7, 2016
Since this game is out in Japan, would there be any chance of ripping this at all?
