Best sounding Beatles albums


I'm looking for Beatles on vinyl to replace the original pressing records my aunt lent me some years ago (She wants 'em back, so to speak). I was going to go for some of the new Japanese pressings but after reading reviews from Fremer, etc. I am thinking this is not the best route.

Does anyone know what the best sounding pressings are (not the individual titles) and where to get them? Also if anyone has info on how much they should go for that would be helpful too.

As always, thanks fellow A'goners for any useful info. THis continues to be a great sight and forum.

I am pretty sure that once you've heard a clean Stereo copy of Sgt Pepper on yellow/black Parlophone original/early UK Press, no other press will suffice. Some feel the MONO is better, but not for me.

I had (sold it) the white album (very clean) original UK MONO numbered in the lower 6000 (very early press) and while it sounded great I prefer the orig UK Stereo there as well (Apple).
