The box sets, if still available, are great value! L'Oiseau-Lyre (Decca) and Erato and Argo are also phenomenal.

My favorites for CD have been; Harmonia Mundi, ECM, Pentatone, moderntimes_1800, Zig Zag, cpo and BIS. For remastered vintage recordings; Orfeo d'Or, Andante. My favorites for original monophonic vinyl have been; Archiv Produktion (DG), London/DECCA and Haydn Society Records.
