I'm looking to pick up a relatively good set of speakers to listen to my vinyls through... I've got 100e to spend! Any suggestions or information welcome!

Got these during the summer for my record set up. First class speakers. Serious value for money.
Tidy size and a serious thump out of them.

Highly recommended.....

Was just about to recommend edifiers too.  I feel like there's a thread on this already here somewhere with a heap of recs.  But anyway:

a tenner over your budget but I have these and couldn't recommend them enough for the price.  Two aux ins and Bluetooth so you can rig a few things up to them at once too.

Thanks a million for the recommendations, will check them out!


I got a set of Edifiers for 150e about 2 years ago. Active and they do the trick.

Seriously thinking about a set of Edifiers from Santy. I see different versions. There's a set come in around 140 euros too. Is there much difference between them?

I highly recommend the set I posted earlier in the thread Pedro.

I was asking about them. Ended up with pair of Edifier R1280T speakers for the pc. Sound great with youtube playing, and my wife uses them with work zoom/conference calls, with no issues. 

Another vote for Edifiers. Honestly, they're the job. Quite bass heavy, but you can always dial that down.

I actually play my synths through them and they sound fucking tremendous even for that.

How would they be for more moody shit like Prog Rock with plenty singing? Or even stuff like Van Morrison, stuff like Cynic, Zepellin with lots of warm vibes to them? I'm asking coz all my records are that way inclined. Diamond head, Saxon also. Old stuff basically.

I played everything (Metal, Rock, Electronic, Reggae, etc) on my record player over the last 6 months and the speakers have stood up well to all.
You'll know when you hold them. Heavy as a wooden bucket full of elephant shite. Great for the price.

I got these recently for my daughter's house warming gift (along with a Sony record player).....

I moved into a house in the red light district in Eindhoven when I was living there 25 years ago and the previous occupants had left a nice wee record collection behind them for some reason.
About 120 reggae LPs and about 30 or so rock albums.
