Beatles CD box set

I own the original box set and I have to say that the sound is fantastic.  I have a pretty good system, an Oppo 105D with a Hegel H360 and Raidho XT-2 speakers.  On "Girl", it seems as if John Lennon is in my room singing the song.  So I would not hesitate to grab the box set, IMO.

This is from Amazon.

Don't the US versions have added reverb on the first few albums?  I know there were fewer songs per LP here and that there are a couple more albums in the full American set.  Through Revolver, at least, the stereo mixes were done with the US market in mind and were done quickly, resulting in some sloppiness and discrepancies here and there.  So the recently remixed Revolver, for instance, is probably a better listen than the original stereo mix.

Unless the US versions are what you or your wife grew up with I'd go with the Mono Box with the UK versions.

+1 on the 2009 remastered box set. Very well done IMO
