Best Beethoven's 9th recording?


I want to get a better recording (on regular/hybrid CD) of Beethoven's 9th... Note: looking for great sound quality in a decent (or better) performance... not a mediocre recording of a great performance.

Any suggestions appreciated (ditto for the 5th).

Thanks!

All of these sound quite good, but the first three are recent recordings. All excellent performances.

Barenboim, Teldec
Wand, RCA
Norrington, Hanssler
Bohm, DG Eloquence
Fricsay, DG
Bernstein, DG
