Just agreeing with the majority on Telarc discs.
I have give of these gems, and nothing else Classical
or otherwise compares with the quality of the recording.
The performances themselves were also top-notch.  

A few thoughts on the medium:

	I own a Sony CDP-101.  I have been very happy with its
	performance, so far.  It doesn't have the programmability
	of other models, but who wants to listen to 10 songs
	in 15 different orders consecutively, anyway.  I'm thrilled
	not to have to listen to pops, hisses, etc. that is
	so evident in today's records.  Most of the albums that I
	like are recorded to tape for repetitive playing.  This, of
	course allows me to listen to the whole thing through
	without getting up to turn the album over.  This is another
	advantage of the CD's that I greatly appreciate.  Summing
	up, I love the sound (very clean in my opinion, whether it
	is "true" or not is a very subjective argument), I like 
	the music all being on one "side", the handling of the small
	discs is convenient, and it's a new technology with great
	potential.
