The best hi-fi deals 2025 – fantastic prices on five-star audio

Ruark Audio MR1 Mk2 was £350 now £279 at Amazon (save £71)
Gorgeous design and superb performance make these second-gen Ruark MR1 a long-time desktop favourite of ours. They don't offer built-in network streaming, but they do have Bluetooth for easy laptop or phone pairing, plus optical and 3.5mm auxiliary inputs if you want to connect the wired way. Superb performers for their compact size and accessible price.

ELAC Debut 2.0 B5.2 was £279 now £229 at Peter Tyson (save £50)
These Elac Debut B5.2 speakers are one of our favourite budget speakers around, and their capable, detailed, enjoyable performance at this affordable price is ideal for anyone's first hi-fi or pairing with a microsystem.

Bowers & Wilkins 607 S3 was £529 now £429 at Peter Tyson (save £100)
In our five-star B&W 607 S3 review, we called them "entertaining in spades" and "a delight". They set the bar high for clarity, refinement and detail, but also have plenty in the way of punch and dynamism to entertain. Ideal for a step-up system and for small rooms, these superb mid-price speakers originally launched at £599 and then dipped to £549 for the best part of this year – so this is a great new low price.

Bowers & Wilkins 606 S3 was £699 now £629 at Richer Sounds (save £70)
As we noted in our B&W 606 S3 review, "if you can afford and accommodate a step up above the compact 607 S3 speakers, want a larger scale of sound and need more oomph to your bass, the B&W 606 S3 will be more to your liking". These are current Award winners, having picked up the Best Buy award as the 'Best standmount speaker £600-£800'. Now even cheaper than last year.

Q Acoustics 3020i was £188 now £179 at Amazon (save £9)
Smaller (and smaller sounding) than the speakers above but still very sonically gifted, these last-gen Q Acoustics 3020i bookshelf speakers are an excellent option if you're on a tight budget. Their unfussy, easy-going nature will work with a whole variety of systems and rooms. This lowest-price deal applies to all finishes.

Q Acoustics 3050i was £749 now £449 at Peter Tyson (save £300)
Ignore the fact that these floorstanders have been around for a good while – lots of the best products have. £300 off is a massive saving, and while we test the Q Acoustics 3050i at £649, they've often been listed at a more substantial price of £749. That makes this discount all the juicier, especially when you consider how musical, engaging and downright fun they sound.

This two-time What Hi-Fi? Product of the Year winner is sadly now being discontinued but we would still recommend it if you're after a fantastic turntable, especially with this £100 off deal. The Debut Pro sounds incredibly refined, agile and precise – it's the most sophisticated and best-sounding turntable Pro-Ject has made so far.

We love a good deal on this excellent Sony Bluetooth turntable. The PS-LX310BT is a plug-and-play fully automatic design that includes phono stage and can connect to up to eight Bluetooth headphones or speakers. A great budget buy for a turntable, especially for under £200.
