Recommendations for a mini Hi-Fi system

[craigd]

Hi,

I'm looking for recommendations for a mini Hi-Fi system for my living room.

It must be able to play CDs, listen to DAB+, and have USB & Bluetooth connectivity. The Bluetooth should be able to allow devices to connect to it & also enable the use of external speakers.

Thank you in advance

£100 , £1,000 , £5,000 whats your budget

Marantz Melody X M-CR612 and Denon RCD M41 are a couple you could take a look at.

It's a bit pricey, but look at the Denon Ceol N12. It has a phono stage and HDMI, so it really does everything and then some. Look out for deals.

I'm not really into DAB+ since internet radio at home is fine to me. My father uses a Denon Ceol mini system in his office which should have all the functionality you mentioned. I see the Ceol is also mentioned above.

As he hasn't got back to us regarding budget yet and, as you say no DAB, i am not sure why this expensive system warrants a mention?
i feel pretty sure anyone who mentions mini hifi isn't looking to spend a huge amount.

I'm almost certain you're right but I like the new Cyrus way of doing things and thought a picture will convince him that this is what he really needs 🙂

I can possibly understand your liking of the Cyrus set-up but it doesn't comply with what he needs so just wondering why it was put forward?

You could try Fosi Audio, that have a small DAC and amp, but you'd need top find a CD player to go with it:

I have the marantz melody x mcr612 at £439 with wharfedale diamond 9.1 speakers at £129. I don't think you could beat it

with wharfedale diamond 9.1 speakers at £129.

I think there was a time a few years back there was talk they were going to discontinue these, retailers didn't want to get left holding obsolete stock and discounted them massively. I managed to pick mine up for £68 ... briallint speakers, even at £129 ... I think there was quite a bit of backlash and it's why they decided not to stop making them.

Thinl the OP of this thread's long since disappeared though after their single post, can't see much point in any suggestions for them as guessing they bought something a while ago.
