....with something other than the Ninth, since this is the piece where the difference between Haitinks approach and the usual massive finale is most apparent.I'd suggest starting with the First, where his strengths are evident but the difference is not jarring, then proceeding to one of the middle symphonies, and then on to the Ninth.
In any case, you won't regret buying the set.
