That box will be a great resource for years to come.

I voted Boult (EMI) and Thomson. It's surprising to see Previn is leading the pack here, because, quite frankly, his set suffered from horrible audio and this is why I would never choose it as a favorite. I can why some love Handley, Haitink, and even Slatkin, but after Boult and Thomson, I would go with Andrew Davis' cycle on Warner. His cycle is one of the more consistent ones I've heard.
