This past weekend I picked up Beethoven's 6, 7, & 8th symphonies, but am not thrilled with the recordings. This sounds a bit obtuse, but what are the "best" recordings (i know performances can vary by conductor,etc, and seems more subjective?) of the 6th through 8th, if not all 9? (I should also add that I am a classical neophyte, and really don't know who/what I like.)
In the exact same vein, I found and read the following threads, but some are a tad old and I was hoping for updated responses. Thanks!!
