FOR UP-TO-DATE NEWS AND REVIEWS OF ALL THE BEST NEW HI-FI, VISIT STUFF.TV/TOP-10/HI-FI-STREAMING
Naim Mu-so 2
£1299 / stuff.tv/Mu-so2
The Mu-so 2 is a fuller, richer,
more detailed and louder listen
than the model it replaces, with
lots of added functionality, and
it’s every bit as handsome and
decorative. Too expensive? You
can still get the original Mu-so
for several hundred pounds less.
JBL Xtreme 2
£220 / stuff.tv/Xtreme2
A hefty but just about portable
Bluetooth speaker, the Xtreme 2
has a rich and dynamic sound that
deals expertly with rock, pop and
hip-hop. The massive battery,
multiroom potential and IPX7 rating
mean there’s a heap of fun on offer
without spending big.
KEF LSX
+++++ £999 (pair) / stuff.tv/KEFLSX
Convenience and fine sound at a real-world
price, and in some vivid colours.
Loewe Klang M1
+++++ £169 / stuff.tv/KlangM1
Exceptional build quality and sound in
a comprehensive compact speaker.
Jam Heavy Metal
+++++ £68 / stuff.tv/JamHM
Classy sound and design at a bargain price: this
is still the best affordable Bluetooth speaker.
Marshall Tufton
+++++ £350 / stuff.tv/Tufton
Huge power, 360° clarity and long battery life
make this the perfect portable party speaker.
UE Ralis
+++++ £170 / stuff.tv/Ralis
A pretty speaker with great battery life, and it
sounds superb when cranked up.
UE Megaboom 3
+++++ £170 / stuff.tv/Megaboom3
You’ll struggle to find a better, or more fun,
portable Bluetooth speaker.
Sonos multiroom
system
from £199 / stuff.tv/SonosOne
If you want to pretend your favourite band is
playing in your living room, there’s no better
option than a Sonos wireless speaker. They

boom out your tunes with dazzling finesse

• from the compact and Alexa-compatible
