If you only want to own one HI FI system BUY THIS ONE ! it's the best I have ever had after many years of owning different systems. It is simple to use, minimal contraols and produces the sweetest, crystal clear sound I have heard. even comparing it to systems costing three or four times the price. I have it playing through B&W 686 speakers and the sound is superb! I have added the optional "r@dock" to enable playing my I Pod, again superb ! even linkingh to the TV the result is stunning.

Advantages: Great Sound, Great Looks, Great Price Disadvantages: Remotes a bit cheap, no USB port,
Having been in the market to downsize my old hi fi for something more compact, I've settled on the Teac reference 300 mkIII with DAB tuner. Its a 3 box system as opposed to the other smaller one box systems manufactured by Teac and others such as Denon, Arcam and Onkyo. As such, although being larger, it is more user friendly to use and has more power at 45 wpc RMS. At around £500 rrp it stands up favourably in price to the ArcamSoloMini and comes in silver or black finish with machined aluminium fronts and a classy blue display on each unit. It actually appears slightly retro in appearance although the remotes are a bit cheap looking. The silver units can be found for as little as £349 without speakers so its quite a bargain.
Sound quality for such a small unit is really clear and well defined with a warm bass typical of Teac ...
