Westminster offers the 28 CD set of Van Til's Christ and Human Thought and I was wondering if anyone can vouch for the audio quality and the material itself.

28 CDs? That's a lot. Chris Rhoades might know more about it when he gets back from the weekend.

Check out Sermon Audio They have 78 audio files for free of Van Til. I checked my Van Til CD-Rom and it comes with that many audio, so without doing a complete comparison, I would guess that they are the same. What I would do is call the WTS Bookstore and get some of the names of the lectures contained on the CD's and see if they are mirrored on Sermon Audio.
You can get the Van Til Works CD Rom for 75 bucks from WTS as well:

This contains all of the audio but is also indispensible for putting all of Van Til's published works and unpublished in a searchable format.
Forewarning...Van Til isn't the easiest to listen to. I like to for nostalgic reasons. If you are wanting to spend money to learn apologetics/philosophy, check out Bahsnen's lectures or probably a better way is to check out John Frame's lectuers on Philosophy and Apologetics at RTS's iTunes section. They're free seminary courses. I took Frame's class last Fall with him at Charlotte on the History of Philosophy and Christian Thought and recommend it highly.
