Sorry, but you won't get 'Hi Fi' for under sixty quid
![]() You will get something to play CD's on with a radio tuner though. Have a look in Comets or somewhere similar and ask if you can listen to a few.

Yep, within your budget, either are OK.
They much a muchness, really, but if pushed I'd choose the Philips model.

I have heard the MC series of components from Philips and for the price they are not bad at all, I had picked up one of them for my daughter (Not the model you listed).
By the way, £60 is not enough to even buy the cables that one needs to connect the speakers and components together, let alone buying components ![]()

I would go for Philips even if it was £20 higher than the other one.

It will be better than the rubish one he had before, so he will be happy.

I just had a look at them and allthough this has nothing to do with Music.. I think that the Philips MC150 with its blue backlit display looks allot better than the Goodmans
Stewart at that sort of price it should be more of an ornament than an actual device to play music...lol.. Just kidding.... I have a mini system too and there not that bad really.. the one i have is a Panosonic SA PM 28 it has a nice sound... but still misses that rich sound produced by true Hi-Fi systems (Does Me Though.. )Yep definatly the Phillips is what i would go for out of the two.... Why not try a trip to your local Comet and see them in the flesh so to speak... take your own CD one that you know and ask if you can have a Demo... after all it might look good but sound like an empty tin box.. only one way to know and a good way to find if your ears like the sound it makes... ![]() You dont have to buy it there and then .. you could jot down the model number and search to see if there is a cheaper one on the net.. but the most imortant thing is to let your ears do the buying... (if that makes sence).... ![]()
