Can you tell the difference?

I'd like to know if anybody notices a difference in how I sound between these two recordings I made about a month ago, and if so, which one do you like better? I made a couple of equipment and technique changes and I want to see if the change is actually perceptible. (It was perceptible to the people who were coaching me at the time, but they were aware of exactly what changes I made.)

I'd also appreciate any comments on the actual performances themselves. Last time I asked for comments on a performance here, the responses were all extremely critical, but led me to reevaluate some aspects of my playing.

Edit: Since the above recordings are of different pieces, I've made some recordings of the same excerpt played twice so it's easier to hear the difference.
