Ok Tibo speakers were our first step into Bluetooth only sound. I want bigger output now, bigger speakers and quality.

Where and what would you recommend?

As ever, you’ll need to give a budget, otherwise you’ll just get a long list of speakers.

Within £200? Would that give good quality?

Probably, but I’d say you might be better off saving up and spending more. £200 compared to £70 isn’t necessarily a huge jump. How big is the room they’ll be in?

I'm flexible on price. They'll be in the hallway as we mainly listen to them from the kitchen etc

Echo studio on offer at the moment. Gets good reviews. My echo plus was nice for the money.

Extra fiver available off and cashback with Quidco. If you don't like it I bet you would get your money back selling it as open box on eBay.

I'd personally be getting one of these for slightly over you £200 budget:

This seems to be about the best price out there at the mo.

I have one of the slightly older versions in the kitchen and it's really good. I also have the little yamaha box that plus into the back of my main amp setup and that's amazing. The music cast app is really good too for setting up multiple rooms and syncing.

£249 from RicherSounds at the moment, that is a GOOD price.

I am moving all 'sonos' installs to Yamaha Musicast at the moment, better pricing, more flexible and better supported (IMO)
