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'm not the biggest Beatles maven or vinyl junkie, but I would direct your attention to the Anthology sets, particularly Anthology II. These benefit from attentive remastering and the fact that the master tapes haven't been beaten to hell over the last 40 years. I only have them on CD, but they sound quite fresh.
