Since I've been greatly enjoying the Dovrak string quartets I acquired, I'm
ready for a complete set of the symphonies.  I have a recording or two of
the last three symphonies but none of the earlier ones.  If memory serves,
I have Davis doing the last three on Philips and Harnoncourt's 7th or 8th
(whichever he did first).

Kubelik has a full set on DG, and I think that's received much acclaim.
Are there any other full sets of merit? I could also buy on a one by one
basis.  Reading the archives, it appeared that Szell was considered a great
buy for the latter symphonies.  How about Gunzenhauser on Naxos?
