Within our stereo systems selection you'll find bookshelf, floor-standing and surround speakers. These different styled speakers are suited for different purposes and can be used in a variety of ways. The smaller stereo systems are great for casual background music at home and although compact, can still provide powerful sound. Our medium to large stereo systems are ideal for use with a TV or for gatherings at home where you need audio with a bit more power.

The stereo amplifiers we have included in these kits have many features to offer that make your listening experience more enjoyable. These include Bluetooth connectivity, microphone inputs, echo control, EQ control and USB/SD inputs. The array of connection options available make each system suitable for most existing audio equipment that you would be looking to pair it with and give you a high level of control over the audio.

What is the best home stereo system?

All of our stereo systems are great to use as a music system for home use, as well as for entertainment purposes with a TV. The kit that you go for will depend on the intended use of the system and the size of the room you will be using it in.

If you are after a home stereo system that you will use for casual background music and low volume playback, any of the systems with bookshelf speakers would be best. If, however, you need something with a higher volume output then one of the floor-standing speaker options would be a better choice.

Stereo audio provides a more immersive listening experience compared to mono audio due to certain sounds being split between the two different speakers. With an audio mix in music or films, there will be sounds that the audio engineer or producer has panned to the left or right. These sounds are reproduced between the two speakers in a stereo setup to give a sense of dimension to the audio and allow you to hear more detail in a mix.

In a larger room, sound can get lost quite easily. If you use smaller speakers in a large room, it can be quite underwhelming as they're not suitably powered to provide the audio for this purpose. Our floor standing stereo speaker systems are great for more open spaces such as living rooms, as the multiple woofers included in each cabinet provide rich and deep bass that fills the room easier. Whether you are using the home audio system for music or entertainment, you can be assured that you will be experiencing the best quality sound achievable.

How can I use a home audio system?

Our home stereo systems can be used in many different ways thanks to the variety of speaker styles and sizes as well as the multiple input options available on the included amplifiers. This includes karaoke use, TV audio systems, surround sound and casual background music.

If you are after a stereo system to use for karaoke purposes, you're in the right place. Most of the amplifiers included in these kits have a microphone input, and some come with a microphone included. Once you have connected the system to your TV, tablet, PC or any other audio device, you can simply plug a microphone into the respective input, turn the mic volume up and then sing along to the music.

For those who want to use the music system for home cinema purposes by connecting it to your TV, you have a wide range of options to choose from. You could go for one of our floor standing speaker kits which provide classic stereo audio in a high-quality manner, or you could go for the traditional surround system. We offer these in many colour options that will be sure to enhance your home aesthetics.

If you are after a simple system to plug into a CD or record player, one of the kits with smaller speakers is a great choice. They provide well-rounded frequency response and respectable volume outputs and can be used effectively for background music purposes.

Many of the amplifiers within these kits have multiple line inputs located on their rear. If using the system with your TV, you will most likely be connecting more than one device to it for audio playback which is where these inputs come in handy. Connect multiple devices to one amplifier and then you can switch easily between them whenever you please.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a stereo system?

A stereo system includes two speakers that can produce a multidirectional audio effect when playing stereo audio. This means that each speaker reproduces sound from an independent audio channel, creating an immersive sound experience.

Stereo systems are perfect for providing high-quality audio for music and entertainment in the home.

Our stereo systems contain everything needed, including speakers, an amplifier and the cables needed for connection. A range of systems are available in various sizes to suit all living spaces.

What is the difference between mono and stereo audio?

The difference between mono and stereo audio is that mono sound has a single audio channel, while stereo has two channels.

This means that if using mono sound, all connected speakers will play the same audio. Whereas, with stereo speakers, the sound is split between two audio channels, meaning that the left and right speakers can reproduce independent sound.

This adds depth and detail to the audio output and replicates natural hearing, with audio sources coming from different directions.

The majority of music and entertainment is recorded in stereo sound, so will produce this effect when played on stereo speakers.

What types of stereo systems are available?

There are many types of stereo system in a variety of sizes to suit all spaces and homes. Firstly, there are floor standing systems.

These systems provide significant power and are perfect in larger rooms and open spaces. They often have multiple woofers in each unit, so produce a rich and deep bass.

Next, there are bookshelf systems which are great for listening to background music in small and medium sized rooms. These systems are compact and do not take up much space, making them ideal for surfaces such as bookshelves and desks.

Lastly, we offer surround sound systems that feature multiple speakers in different sizes. These are placed around a room, and can create an immersive home cinema effect.

The features included with each system also vary, with popular features including; Bluetooth, USB/SD card inputs, microphone inputs, and a remote control.

What is the best stereo system?

The best stereo system for you will depend on your particular needs, and the size of the room where you will be using the system. For example, if you are looking for a powerful system for a large living room, then a floor standing stereo system would be perfect.

Alternatively, if you want a system for background music in a small office, a compact bookshelf system would be ideal. Also consider the features that are important to you, as these vary between systems, with many including features such as Bluetooth, in-built MP3 player with USB/SD card, and microphone inputs.

Is stereo sound good?

Yes, stereo sound can provide a high-quality listening experience. Stereo sound means that the audio is split between the left and right speaker, with each speaker producing independent audio.

This provides a natural listening experience, as you will hear sound coming from different directions.

It also adds detail and depth to the sound. Most music and audio entertainment is recorded in stereo, so is designed to work perfectly with stereo speakers.

Where should I position stereo speakers?

To achieve the best stereo effect, your stereo speakers should be positioned on either side of the listener, ideally at the same distance and height.

It often helps to think of a triangle shape, with a speaker on either side of the base, and the listener at the apex.

Make sure that the speakers are facing towards you, and position them at ear height or higher, for the best sound distribution.

Do stereo systems need an amplifier?

Many stereo systems feature passive speakers, which means that an amplifier is needed to provide the speakers with power.

Our stereo systems include a suitable amplifier with a selection of useful features, such as Bluetooth and an in-built MP3 player, enabling you to play a variety of music and audio.

It is also possible to get a stereo system with an active speaker design, in which case an external amplifier is not needed. Some systems also contain an active/passive pair of speakers.

These connect together, and the active speaker then powers the passive speaker so that an amplifier is not needed.

Can I connect a stereo system to my television?

Yes, many stereo systems can be connected to a television so that you can listen to your favourite programmes in high-quality audio.

The amplifier included with your system will often feature multiple inputs, such as AUX-in or a phono-RCA connection, that can be used to connect televisions and a range of devices.

In addition, it may be possible for your speakers to connect to your television via Bluetooth, if your television includes a Bluetooth transmitter, and your speakers feature a Bluetooth receiver. In this case, once paired together the speakers will play the audio from your TV.
