I've been looking around for some budget speakers to break me into the world of hi-fi for a while now, and I've narrowed it down to a couple of choices, all in the sub £150 category, and all with sound reviews.
So really I need a recommendation of which to choose. They'll be hooked up to a laptop or iPod most of the time, if that makes any difference.

Here are the choices:

So what do you think?

Oh yeah, also, where is the best UK based online store to get amp parts - potentiometers, cases, speaker terminal posts etc.?

Thanks!

I would consider monitor audio bronze speakers - also got good reviews - they sound quite good indeed for the money !

I would consider buying at British ebay - at your price point, you would end up with far more quality this way.

Your ears will thank you.

Just be careful to check the seller's rating, and make sure you end up with a clean speakers in good shape.

Although you are taking a chance buying used, if you are careful, you are likely to end up with a far more satisfying sound.

Monitor audio speakers bronze and silver are good choices - not radius though.
