Well done Craig. Looks like sensible choices to me. Myryad stuff is decent and the little Dynaudios are excellent!

The sound quality is supposed to be decent. It's pretty new.

Sansui is a very respected make in Hi-Fi. Some of their seventies and eighties gear was astoundingly good and they're still respected now.

Feast your eyes on this:

For fifty quid I don't see how you can really go wrong.



Sansui and Luxman are my two favourite Japanese makes of Hi-Fi. Beautiful stuff.

By the way, Sansui also made some pretty damn serious speakers:

The funny looking slotted things are acoustic lenses mounted in front of very nice compression horn mid/tweeters.
