It's all about the music, dude! Sit down, relax and listen to some tunes.

Another vote for Gielen, but......

FWIW I gave my Bertini away. Too mellow for my tastes. Hurlwitz gave it high praise in his review and I was quite disappointed. Interestingly the notes with the set described it perfectly, I thought. He has also highly praised Gielen and I have no disagreement here. I had the 7th and 9th since they came out in the Gielen Edition on the Intercord label in the early 90's. I bought the set when it came out to get the rest. Not cheap, but I think if you must have a complete set this is your best choice. Excellent benchmark Mahler performances I think that will serve you well until you decide to explore more.
