Is there any consensus on the sonic quality of the EMI reissues by Warner Classics? I noticed that they have released some juicy titles like these two.
Personally, I think if you picked and chose for your favorite B symphonies individually it will be better. If you want to hear entire cycles of 1 - 9 done by particular conductors, and if the quality per pressing is not as good in a box set, why don't you first try the digital?
