Do you plan to buy The Beatles CD remasters?

And if so, will you be going for the stereo or the mono? The release is close enough now -- 09/09/09 -- that I'm starting to get pretty excited about this -- though I'm really not sure which to get. Maybe both? Nah, that would be awfully excessive, wouldn't it? But, we are talking about The Beatles, after all, so maybe ...
What are your thoughts?

Listen to " I saw her standing there" from the Capitol release's and tell me that the old Parlophone versions sounds better.
The Capitol version now has bass and dynamics.

That being said, Cyclonicman, I hope the new releases are better than the Parlophone versions. You can keep those!

Ozzy, I think we are all hoping that the remasters will finally provide us with the best fidelity available.

Amen.
Lets all pray...
Perhaps there will be a SACD, DVD-A or Blu Ray release???

I'm thinking of giving the mono set a shot, then maybe some stereo versions on an individual basis. According to my understanding only 10,000 mono box sets will available.

Bongofury, wow, lucky you. I admit I'm jealous as hell that you had that experience with George Martin. Yet, congratulations it must have been fun.
