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

I kind of enjoy the Central European approach myself

I have (and enjoy) two recordings (different performances) with the Prazak Quartet, one with Jan Talich, and one with Hatto Beyerle. I think both of these recordings used to be available from BRO for cheap, but I just checked Amazon and the one with Beyerle seems have a $61 asking price now. This kind of madness should be eliminated once we're all streaming everything! ;-)



Another recording I like is by the Takacs Quartet and Denes Koromzay, but it's the earlier one on the Hungaroton label. (I haven't heard the group's later recording on Decca recommended below.)



I suspect I haven't heard as many recordings of this work as a couple of other folks who posted in this thread. The work itself is of course a masterpiece - I feel that Mozart's music really benefits from the added fifth part (compared to a string quartet) in terms of complexity, interest and richness.
