The original, natch. But a fellow by the name of Herbert Weixelbaum has gone ahead and compared each of the models anyway.

Classic Game Boy Waveform

While his background info in some cases isn't spot on, the waveform analysis is. Mr. Weixelbaum goes to great lengths when comparing the sound quality of the different Game Boy models. Not only the waveforms are compared, but other qualities are also noted. Pro Sound mods are also included for the original Game Boy, Pocket and Color models.

So anyone messing around with Nanoloop, or LSDJ, should head over and check out the results. It's pretty interesting reading for the rest of us, too.
