Alesis RA 300

Advantages: Easy to use, looks good
Disadvantages: Could allow TV input (I dont really think that this matters too much!)

...I have had the Rotel RA-971 Mk II for little under a year, i am using the amp with the Rotel Rcd-9658x CD player and MS206 speakers. I have been extremely satisfied with the quality of the sound. Of course it isn’t the best amp in the world but it is exceptionally good for its price. I would recommend this to any one who wants an amp under £300. There are many features in this amp that makes it worthwhile. First of all you have a choice of running the sound strait to the speakers without having to go through the headphone jack to give better sound if your not planning on using head phones. You also have simple switching between the input devices.... Read review

Advantages: Power, sound quality, compactness
Disadvantages:

...The Ra-931 is a super little amp, the sound quality is crisp and defined with a good amount of power the low end bass is deep and powerful. Controls are clear and well thought out, in a compact stylish design. Conection for speaker cable is solid and sound tranmission to the speakers is briliant. Price wise and for power output, it competes with other amps well and is certainly worth consideration in a low to mid range home system. I've heard other amps of this size but this is the best i've heard.... Read review

I asked myself this question when my old 32" broke down a number of months ago. I decided I didn't need a massive 42" LCD monster and to be truthful all those fancy add ons turned me off, I just wanted a TV a could flop in front of and just relax!! I bought my JVC for a smidge of £350 now you can get them for £300 on the net if you shop around and I think that this is an ideal price for a TV which is not at the top of the bunch but a decent budget all rounder. The TV comes with a free surround sound system which is ok but I think if this is going to be your main box to watch TV on you could probably do with buying a better system to link up to the TV. The surround system is functional... Read review
