Better again, go to Richer Sounds and buy:

Cambridge Audio CD5 - £99.95

Cambridge Audio A300 - £139.95

Mordaunt-Short MS906 - 349.95 (black or maple)

I'm sure if you buy the whole system, they'll throw in all the cables
you need. Total outlay of less than 600 squids, all new gear, and
top-class sound by any reasonable standard.


A tad more than the OP's budget of £200, though ;-)

I don't think that's enough to start buying separates, to be honest. Each
component will likely be so cheap that the first upgrade will show up the
rest of the system. Something like a Denon DM-31 would be a much better use
of the money. Okay it's not upgradeable but it should give good sound for a
long time and will always find a good home somewhere in a house.
