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.

Since I first posted this question (almost four years ago) I have experimented with a lot of different Beatles titles. IMHO the best sounding are the original (1st pressing if you can) mono Parlophone's from the UK...... They are hard to find (and even harder to find a deal on), but it's kinda fun to track them down. In the end, I really like these better than the MFSL or Japanese pressings I have.
