I could post a review about how great this set is, but I’d rather share how I got the box because I still think it’s the strangest and coolest story in my vinyl collecting journey. A new Mono Box, containing remastered monoural versions of the Beatles' core albums (with the exception of Yellow Submarine album) plus Mono Masters compilation, was released on 9 September 2009 along with Stereo Box and new stereo reissues of the individual albums, including the first four albums given their stereo debuts on CD.

In 2014, five years after the initial CD release, mono editions of each of the albums were released individually in vinyl format, though the mono editions for CD were still available only in the box set. All of the USA albums were released individually on CDs containing both the mono and original stereo mixes; this is the only other way to acquire the mono mixes on CD. At that time [...] the console was about this big with four faders on it. And there was one speaker right in the middle [...] and that was it. When they invented stereo, I remember thinking 'Why? What do you want two speakers for?', because it ruined the sound from our point of view. You know, we had everything coming out of one speaker; now it had to come out of two speakers. It sounded like... very... naked. [11] Oricon Weekly Album Charts for the third week of September 2009". Oricon (in Japanese) . Retrieved 1 October 2009. The last two Beatles albums Abbey Road, and Let It Be were also not included as they never received a mono LP release in the UK.
