"What kind of a gimmick is this? These are the 1980's versions of the Beatles CDs. I bought this set years ago for about a third of the price listed here. I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw this price! There is no reason for the price of this box set to appreciate. As another reviewer says, the 2009 remasters have made this box set obsolete. Compared with the new CDs, the sound on this set is like throwing a couple of sheets over your speakers. And the box is just normal wood--not even Norwegian! I can't believe this is Amazon! Buy the new remastered box set. There is no more purpose for this set other than artifact or museum piece."

"There has always been debates about the sonic differences between Toshibas release and the rest of the worlds. I really do not think Toshibas sounds any different but I can assure you they do sound at least as good. The Wood Box is a Joke. Concentrate on getting the discs & 2 booklets. I was lucky to receive this as a gift. It is nice to have these just for the reaction Beatle fans have. I think everyone would be better served by a REMIX of the original recordings. But George Martin probably would be reluctant and I can see why. If all of the Band was alive and well and could participate he would probably be happy to do so. But I also see why he would be happy to leave the versions that were so great as they were when released just as they are. Hope I made some sense. Do not spend over $200 for this or you will probably feel ripped off in my opinion."
