Beatles CD box set

Hello all,

Normally a vinyl only guy, but looking to procure a CD Box Set to play with my wife.

Anybody have any experience with this or any CDs coming from this website.

Speakers are full range single driver, and headphone listening will be through a Stax rig, so if the CD mix is bright it will be tough to take.

TIA for any insight.

Cheers, Crazy Bill

I much prefer the sound on the mono albums. If what you want are the US configurations, the set OP linked to has each disc in stereo and mono, and is preferable to the stereo-only box set.

I bought mine at Borders on the day it was released, 9-9-09. I’m not aware of an earlier version. I am also a huge Beach Boys’ fan, and I’ve come to the conclusion that Capitol Records committed many sins in turning the excellent mono versions of my favorite records from the 1960s into these awful fake stereo versions. Of course, on my childhood suitcase stereo, who could tell the difference? Hope this helps.
