1st post here so please don't bite

I want to buy a stereo system, the old one is caput after many years use. A good fm radio plus cd player is all I'd use tbh. USB slot might be handy also.

I've no idea of what sort of power I should get. The room is a decent size.

A good mini system might do the trick maybe. Any suggestions?

Thanks.

I came across an LG FA-163 system going for €134 plus shipping on Pixmania.ie.

Seems to do the trick. Any thoughts?

do you have an ipod, cus that LG has a ipod dock and you'll be paying about 30e of that price for that. Also it plays DVD, is this something that you need your hifi to do? Do you have a seperate dvd player?

I just had a quick look and for the price you were paying for the LG, if its just a hifi you want i'd go with this http://www.argos.ie/static/Product/partNumber/5139990/c_1/1%7Ccategory_root%7CHome+entertainment+and+sat+nav%7C14573554/c_2/2%7Ccat_14573554%7CHome+audio+and+hi-fi+systems%7C14573555/c_3/3%7Ccat_14573555%7CMicro+audio+systems%7C14573556.htm

Yeah I do have an ipod. Just ordered a FA163 from Pixmania. Just under €160 delivered.

Compared to the Panasonic one you mentioned the LG has:-

1/. DAB
2/. 2x80 watts RMS
3/. A pair of separate subwoofers.

I'll report if it's any good after delivery.
