I hesitated ordering this set as I was worried about sound quality-considering the history of these recordings the sound is excellent. I’m not listening to these on audiophile equipment-so I can only guess the defects would be more noticeable, but on my decent equipment, I have no complaints. I’d recommend this set strongly, partially for it’s historical value, but mainly because the performances sound great!
