Micro and style systems

The TEAC CR-H258i is a fine affordable micro - it performs enthusiastically from all its sources

Some of the features of this Panasonic micro system are very usable, but we'd rather have seen more attention paid to the basics

Roberts Sound 43 is a snazzy little system with great DAB radio and an iPod dock - would make a really good bedside unit

It might have some flaws, but this Lyngdorf system is something different from the norm, and well worth a look

This is a fine-sounding all in one music system, although we'd like DAB, and a more user-friendly remote

Aside from being a touch mild-mannered, this is an excellent micro – and it looks good to boot

This budget micro is impressive on paper, but sadly it struggles where performance is concerned

There was a gap between the micro system and 'proper' hi-fi separates – consider it filled by the excellent Reference 600

A decent, impressive system. But the performance, at the money, doesn't hit the musical heights

The clock radio grows up in the form of Yamaha's new Desktop Audio system
