I think that everything recorded of Szymanowski on Marco Polo has already
been transferred to Naxos, and I'm not aware of any plans Naxos has to
record the string quartets.  However, given the Naxos volume factor, a
recording of them is likely if you have patience.

Not being a patient person, I'd recommend the Denon recording of the
two string quartets performed by the Carmina String Quartet.  Olympia has
also issued a disc of both string quartets, but I've not heard that one.
