Hi-fi speakers

Best stereo speakers up to £150, Awards 2010. A balanced, tuneful little speaker, that gets a firm grasp of the emotional heart of the music

They have an awesome capability for power handling, but at this kind of price, we'd expect much more from these Epos floorstanders

More impressive than its forerunner but the DALI Ikon 6 MK2 has flaws

The Acoustic Energy Neo V2 Three floorstanders look the part and deliver impressive bass

Adept at making even the poorest of recordings easy to swallow, the Q Acoustics 2050s are great at filling large spaces with their smooth, bassy sound

EB Acoustics EB2s may look a little old-fashioned; the sound, though, is anything but

Beautifully finished, these Kudos floorstanders should be a consideration if you value musical enjoyment above everything else

We love these sonically accomplished Neat Petite SXs for their sheer sense of musicality and enjoyment - if you've got the money, audition them

Best stereo speakers £3000+, Awards 2010. The A9 is another excellent Spendor speaker that couples unassuming looks with masterful performance

These wonderfully built and finished Yamahas are enjoyable enough, but their near total lack of rhythm will hinder most
