where to find Pachelbel"s canon?


I have several variations of this piece on cd. However, even the one in which I would consider to be the "best in my collection" still falls short by many aspects of what I'd call "audiophile". Is it possible that someone can give me at list of recomendations pertaining to this piece?

Happy Listening

According to the Gramophone Classical Good CD Guide 2004, usually a reliable guide, their first choice is the version by Neville Marriner and the Academy of St. Martin in the Fields on Philips, recorded c. 1984-85. I have it and find it excellent. In fact I think the recordings of baroque music by this conductor and ensemble usually move to the top of the pile. The sound is fine.
