£100 hifi

AHarvey · 6 Dec 2010 at 02:24

Hi all,

Looking for a cheap little hifi for our dining room.

Ideally it would have USB for connectin harddrives/usb flash drives, ipod connectivity, cd drive capable of also playing mp3s and dab radio.

Something that doesn't take a huge amount of space and looks semi decent.

Can this be had for £100 ??

Or will I just have to settle getting the wife a crappy ipod docking station?

Philips MCB275 Flatbed DAB Micro System. 513/7404

might fit ur needs

Sony CMTBX77DBI Mini Hi-Fi with iPod Dock - dab, ipod, cd etc - santa is bringing one to our house this christmas

qualifies for sony vat back offer too (runs until dec 24th)

118 quid minus vat = pretty close to your budget

Sorry to hijack your thread but i didn't see the point starting one with this here:

What would people recommend for a max of £100 for 2 stereo speakers? Had some Mission M72s in the past but they got knicked

I'll add the 2 suggested to my list

I picked up some mint condition B&W 603 s1 speakers from ebay for £90 collected.

Look hard enough and you will find bargains - ebay, avforums etc

To the OP - You would be a lot better spending £50 on an amp and £50 on bookshelf speakers. I sold my old Cambridge A1 and Mission M71 speakers for £50 on ebay

well, after a bit of googling I found the following:

SCOTT i-WHX 90 CD/MP3 USB/SD Micro Hi-Fi for around £118.

Seems to do everything she wants, and not fussed about the brand. If it breaks it'll just be an excuse to fork out on a proper surround sound stereo system

Just been delivered, but those retards at Pixmania sent it in its original box and hadn't even bothered to wrap it. So now the wife knows what she is getting.

I am extremely ****ed off right now and it's the last time I am ordering from them, bloody mickey mouse **** jockey's!
