Gotta go with Wish You Were Here.
While Darkside of the Moon is a (pretty much) undisputed masterpiece, it seems sort of... emotionally vacant at times. Over produced? Possibly, but everything works in context.
Animals? I feel as if it's a rather weak cd. While "Dogs" is one of the best Pink Floyd songs ever, I find the rest of the cd to just drag from song to song.
The Wall. I'll be honest. I dislike the second half of this record. Nothing of substance or interest minus a few tracks. Move it down to one record, and it's the best cd ever.
Wish You Were Here though is such a great blend of things that make Floyd great. Some deep emotion (especially the title track), some amazing musicianship, and not a low spot on the cd.
