Looking for a HI-Fi with auxillary input

I'm looking for a cheapish Hi-Fi (up to approx 150 pounds) which has an auxillary input so that I can run a turntable through it.

Any suggestions?

    Probably the best bet would be to look at Richer Sounds' website or give them a call.

    And bear in mind that - if you don't already have or intend to buy a separate phono amp, you'll need a phono stage built in, as an Aux input won't have enough gain (typically) on its own.

    An important point in #2.

    You will get better value for money if you buy separate components, rather than a system. And there are plenty of second-hand bargains around: look in your local paper, for instance. In general, if there is anything wrong with an Amp or loudspeakers this will be obvious when you listen to them. If a piece of equipment sounds good when it is demonstrated, it is likely to continue to work for you.

    However, if you want anything that you can listen to with pleasure, then your budget is hopelessly inadequate.
