Article Abstract:
It is important to purchase a high quality set of speakers in order to obtain the best possible sound from a hi-fi system. Before doing so, it is necessary to make a number of key decisions, such as whether to buy floor-standing or bookshelf speakers. It is worth using a dealer which has been recommended or one which is a member of the British Audio Dealers Association. The best dealers will be willing to take the speakers back if they prove unsatisfactory after a home trial.
