The Beatles Mono Box Set was compiled as a special interest package for the hard-core fan. It presents the first ten albums in re-mastered mono (the final 3 albums made their debuts in stereo only), and a double album of singles and EPs, called "Mono Masters". At the time of writing, the mono albums are not available individually. Why would anyone want a newly minted mono collection? The final mono songs were sometimes different. Stereo mixes were usually done days, if not weeks after the original mono mix, and could include different takes when the engineers made the overdubs. Stereo mixes, particularly for the first five albums, did not include as much critical listening from George Martin, and almost none from the Fab' Four. Also, stereo in early 60's England was not broadcast over the air, and the format was largely the preserve of the hi-fi snob. For more than half The Beatles recorded repertoire, the most affordable "weapon of choice" for the twisting, shouting teenage market was the mono mix. Ironically - this box set is the best The Beatles have ever sounded. Like the stereo sibling these are re-mastered, not re-mixed, but unlike the stereo, they have not been clipped or limited to push levels closer to current music ingested through our MP3 players. These albums are cleaner than ever before and compared to the 1980s CD editions you're taken aback by how much dynamic range is on those original tapes. Nothing in this box sounds like a 45 year old recording. Each disc is presented as if it were a miniature "33", replete with plastic anti-scratch sleeve, inner paper sleeve, original album cover, inserts and all original text rendered frustratingly small for anyone old enough to have bought the LPs the first time around. -- Hugo Munday

Album Description
Limited digitally remastered thirteen CD box set that contains the 10 albums originally released by The Beatles in mono (1963's Please Please Me up through 1968's The White Album) plus two further discs of mono singles masters. As an added bonus, the mono Help! and Rubber Soul discs also include the original 1965 stereo mixes, which have not been previously released on CD. These albums will be packaged in mini-vinyl CD replicas of the original sleeves with all original inserts and label designs retained. At the beginning of the '60s, stereophonic recordings were just coming into their own but many households didn't own stereophonic record players. In most cases, an album would originally be mixed in mono for mass consumption and then separately mixed in stereo for those with modern equipment. As the '60s wore on, mono mixes became secondary over stereo and then were eventually abandoned altogether. The Beatles' first 10 albums were mixed twice: once in mono and then in stereo. The mono mixes were sometimes strikingly different to the stereo mixes, which has ensured their collectability over the years. This box contains all the officially released Beatles mono mixes in one limited edition box set. Capitol.

I just have bought the Beatles white mono box set after a few month because I didn't pay so much attention into it.
On september 9th 2009 I had bought the black stereo box set and forgot about it until recently. Although I didn't like the Cd's design itself I was satisfied with the clear sound. I discovered the mono box set has the album replica of the original vinil pressings and found it really interesting to collect. After having reading a few reviews here I decided to spend my money again and now I must admit I did the right thing. The hole design is gorgeous. The little cd's are pretty housed into the box and they are truly exact as they were.
I really enjoy the mono sound. I began the listening with the white album, one of my favourite Beatle albums.
I had chose this one first because I paid so much attention into the newly remastered stereo double album so I was able to compare them easily. From the very first listening I felt a diferent atmosphere a kind of old vintage sound but I like it. "Dear prudence" with new guitar passeges, the warble sound of the Clapton solo in "While my guitar gently weeps", the new loops appeared into "Blackbird" and "Piggies". "I will" don't have the tempo voice until the second verse, also the vocal is much clear in some lines.
But the most diferences are on the second disc. "Yer blues" has the eco of the room on Lennon voice, I just love it.
The background vocals on "Helter skelther" are much clear and the song ends one minute before the original master tape. "long long long" has a double tracking beautiful voice that absolutely love...great Beatle moment!
Some albums are better on stereo, some songs are better in mono...but if you are a deep Beatle fan I recomend you to buy them both. I know they're quite expensive but I think it's not a waste of money.
I do believe they became the music bible of this century again

When John Lennon proclaimed, 'Back to Mono' on the LP 'Sometime in New York City', it wasn't some kind of Luddite expression. Only listening to the Beatles albums as they were originally meant to be heard, do you gain any true comprehension of the genius in music arrangement both the Beatles and George Martin possessed. 'Genius' is not a word I use lightly. The instruments come to the fore the way they were intended and each spoke a particular line. It is more reminiscent of a well written and structured theatre performance. In stereo, all of this is lost and becomes a rabble of noise. You take your pick of just who you are meant to be listening to. Technology and special effects are no substitute for craftsmanship. It is akin to the travesty of motion picture colourisation. It wasn't meant to be that way and only reduces it to caricature.
This is probably the best thing that has happened to Beatles music since they stopped recording. I can only imagine having them actually play in my living room to be better than this. George Harrison once said something like, 'I don't believe it to be real music unless I can hear the scratches on the record'. This mono box set has all the warmth but without the scratches.
This is an excellent product!!!!!!! March 2, 2010

I just want to say that " The Beatles are The Beatles"..... I bought this excellent product and I`m really enchanted wiht it. The sound is very clear and the graphic art it is simply beatiful. The Beatles "in mono" is a great experience!!!!!!!! I bought The Beatles Stereo Box set too, but I love the mono versions instead. I`d like to have the vynil records collection remastered. I`m waiting for it........ Thanks Beatles..........!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wonderful collection February 28, 2010

Wonderful collection of the well known eternal songs. A new sound, for the old hits. If you are new with The Beatles, there's no best way of introduction.
