Our best systems category has undergone a slight change this year. With the increasing popularity of multi-room systems, we deemed them worthy of their own category - therefore, the best systems of 2014 now feature exclusively one-box music and cinema systems.
Another year, another win for the Denon D-M39DAB. It has yet again fended off the competition, to be named the Best Music System up to £400. Nothing else at this price can come close to its performance. It doesn't have Bluetooth, nor is it necessarily the best looking system, but the fact that it's reliable and easy to live with more than makes up for it. It's a fantastic music system.
Cyrus did manage to pick up the Award for Best Music System £1500+, however, courtesy of the Lyric 09. It means the Linn Kiko has lost its title as champion, with the Lyric 09's new head-turning design and legendary Cyrus sound making it the only music system you need to know about in this price band.
We've now seen which system is the best according to price, but there can only be one system that secures the coveted Product of the Year title. Which is it? Find out on our Awards 2014 microsite...
