    For speakers, it kinda depends on how much space you have, but you can find second hand floorstanders going real cheap these days, and they generally give the most smiles per ££

    Good / cheap amplifiers aren't as hard to come by these days, 'Class-T' amps can be picked up for about £40 and they often beat the mid-range Class-D 'hifi' amps (like the ones mentioned above) in reviews.

    Keep an eye on the extras you'll need with mid-range turntables... I picked up a second hand Project debut 3 for £50, but then another 300 on a new stylus, preamp & speed selector...

    • Small to mid sized speakers. I can't play loud music here anyway, its more of a low key thing for my personal enjoyment while I chill.sofakingback
    • Would it be better to buy new reliable equipment? Im not that picky... for now. hahahasofakingback
    • I just spunked a grand on some tannoys from 1978, so I'm probably not the one to ask... some speakers are just more enjoyable to listen to than others...kingsteven
    • I have a set of Q Acoustics 2020s in the kitchen which are modern bookshelf and the they sound amazing *for the size*. but a decent pair of floorstanders wouldkingsteven
    • destroy them in a blind test...kingsteven
