IMO this is the Ring you should go for:

Dynamic conducting, a better cast that Furt's, great price, decent mono sound. Only drawback is that there's no libretto. I'd suggest that you buy Andrew Porter's translation in paperback. Shop around for the best price (e.g  $27 for the whole thing): I believe most versions of these perfrmances are sonically similar. The Pristine Audio re-mastering i(see review at the bottom) is supposed to be a substantial upgrade, but I assume it's fairly pricey.
