Hifi Systems up to £ 1000

ADVICE
One box or Separates or Streaming??

One box gives you a lot for the money in one neat box but doesn't sound as good as the separates. A separate turntable or cd with amplifier will sound better. It's more difficult to keep strictly to the £ 1000, A Rega Planar 1 with matching Rega Io amplifier can dip under the grand with Q Acoustics speakers, if you can squeeze another £ 200 the the Rega Ssystem One is the way to go.

Streaming is the way forward in terms of access to music, will sound best from lossless cd rips, bit of a culture change but worth it. Sonos starts with one box solutions then an amp with small speakers can be around £1000

The best one box around is the Naim Muso Qb at £ 899, and it looks classy too

Marantz have a great combination if you are using Cds, the PM6007 and CD6007 together at £800 works reall y well

Pair these with the little Q Acoustics 3020 and you have a cracking system under £1000
