Default Tangent system from Currys

Looks to be a lot for your money. I've no experience of these
particular units - apparently (from reviews) the Denon mini systems
are about the best at this sort of thing - the Denon DM31S came out
best in a recent Which? micro system test.

And a lot may depend on the speakers - cheaper Mission speakers tend
to be quite good. Take a look at Richer Sounds.

The Mission M71 standmount speakers were bloody amazing for £130
three or four years ago, now for £60 from RS they are a steal. I just
hope that they are in stock. A problem I have often found with RS is
that their tastiest bargains are often out of stock, "Would you like
to look at this better one instead sir ...".

I've thought about:

1. the Denon DM31 at £180 plus some floorstander speakers.

2. Richer sounds package of Cambridge AUDIO CD34 CD Player + Cambridge
Audio A5 Amplifier + Mission M71i speakers at £249. Maybe buying a
receiver later. Those M71's aren't floorstanders though which is what I'm
really after.. I wonder if RS would let me upgrade the speakers...

3. An 'all-in-one' package like the Tangent but still seperates rather than
something like a mini hi-fi.
