Some people don't care about sound quality. My wife is a pianist and she never paid much attention to recorded sound quality, because, as she put it, she listens to what the musicians were thinking rather than the sound reaching her ears. However, some recorded sound is edgy and can create tension, headaches, etc. If your recording of the Schubert has these characteristics then you might not be so happy after listening to the complete piece. You might not catch these problems in A-B listening.
I would go with the 1952 Casals, Tortelier version of the Schubert. Wet string and tin cans would suffice with this music. :-)
