What is the best sounding Mahler symphony cycle?


Folks... I love Mahler but my two versions of the 5th sound very low-fi. I am looking for a well --- really well --- recorded 5th on redbook CD --- or better still... a whole mahler symphony cycle that is audiophile (or... near audiophile quality.

Any help would be appreciated

My choices have to do with vinyl being my primary source, but I guess they date me as well šŸ˜•

On original vinyl the Mehta #3 has no rivals sonically, although as a performance the Bernstein (both the CBS and DGG recordings) may be superior.

I forgot to mention Das Lied von der Erde, but here Klemperer on HMV Angel has my preference (yep, another oldie). As for #10 (Cooke version), I like the Rattle on EMI, but I'll admit that I haven't heard any other performances.

I mentioned in my first post in this thread that I hadnā€™t sampled to many of the newer Mahler recordings as was therefore interested in some suggestions. Ā The Budapest cycle is the relative new comer for me, along with the other Fisher brother. Ā I have the Boulez/Cleveland Seventh, but havenā€™t played it in a dogs age. Ā Maybe time for a spin. Ā Abbado/Lucerne or Chicago or or MTT are the other Sevenths that I reach for.
Although I can't say who has produced the best cycle because there are so many variables I have to agree with @schubertĀ  that every one of Fischer's efforts with the Budapest Orchestra is superb in sound and playing but there are many individual symphonies that I just couldn't let go. So for me the jury is out but I still love Fischer's efforts.
I very much like Boulezā€™s Mahler interpretations. I find them more intimate and less grand than my favorite conductors; eg, Bernstein, Abbado. It's a different take on Mahler.
The VPO recordings have the best SQ in the cycle probably due to the sonics of the wonderful Musikveiren and the recording techniques used.
Not quite audiophile, but worth having a listen.

I'll add to my previous comments that the BoulezĀ  recordings are among theĀ best in sound quality I have heard from DG.Ā
