Hi,

Probably more of a star at £234 including the Denon SC-M37 speakers from Superfi. I bought one from the helpful guys at Superfi Manchester yesterday.

I auditioned the unit with the Denon SC-M37 speakers and Wharfdale Diamond 9.1s at Superfi then popped across the road to Pratical Hifi and listened to the Monitor Audio BR1s.

I came to the conclusion that none of the upgraded speakers made any significant improvement to the sound. Yes they sounded different, but I couldn't honestly say better or worth the 28% increase in the package price. It is worth noting that What-HiFi's 5 star review used the Denon SC-M37 speakers,

Another consideration is that if you are are buying a micro hi-fi you may want micro speakers. The speakers are micro in size but very well made. The Monitor Audio BR1s looked cheaply made in comparison.

Regards
