Default HiFi recomendations

Hi all,
My sister would like a HiFi for the house, possibly an Ipod dock, but preferably with a CD player and possibly a radio as well.
Primary concern is quality of sound.
Budget up to £100 but as little as possible.

Her last Hifi was separates from Richer Sounds based on my recommendation and she asked me if I still had my expertise

So help me out here please, and make me look good

When you say 'her last hifi...' what's happened to it? I doubt anything she buys now for £100 or less is going to beat what she's already got...

I have an iSymphony "mini" HiFi - has iPod dock, CD player, SD Card and USB ports and DAB radio. Great sound quality for such a little machine.

So all she has now is an ipod dock but is very disappointed with the quality of the speakers. I think it was like £20 so I was hoping that £100 would buy decent quality ones.

There are some good reviews for http://direct.tesco.com/q/R.205-6664.aspx but sadly sold out.

Harman kardon soundsticks 2 or a cheaper option jbl creature 2 have a look at the reviews matey. Not docks but just use a wire or buy a dock wire thing make sure the wire is insultated. When i was in the market after a little reasearch last year i came to the above options.

http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B...SIN=B0001W8EFK

108 reviews, 90 5 stars, 11 4 stars, speaks for itself really.
