Browse 1 hi-fi products from Mitchell Acoustics, priced from £499. Give your music the speakers it deserves, from a compact desktop pair to floorstanders for a big room.
Many are active, meaning the amplifier is already inside: power them up, link your phone, TV or record deck and you're listening. Our guide below the products compares sizes, streaming and connections.
The Mitchell Acoustics uStream Groove is a 70 W RMS vinyl system that teams the uStream TT1 belt-drive Bluetooth turntable with a pair of uStream Cube speakers, which work as…
| Type | Suits | Worth checking |
|---|---|---|
| Compact active pair | Desks, bedrooms and smaller lounges. | Stands or desk pads to lift them to ear level. |
| Bookshelf active | Medium and larger living rooms. | Space either side and a gap from the wall behind. |
| Floorstanding active | Big rooms and serious listening. | Floor space and where the sockets are. |
| Bluetooth pair | Easy set-up, and TV sound with no app. | An optical or HDMI ARC input for the TV. |
| Turntable | Vinyl through active speakers. | An analogue input on the speakers, or Bluetooth. |
Larger spaces need larger speakers. A compact pair can sound wonderful at a desk or in a bedroom yet run out of steam in a big open-plan room. Consider how far away you'll sit, too.
KEF builds its wireless models around the Uni-Q driver, with the tweeter mounted in the middle of the mid/bass cone so sound spreads evenly round the room. Mitchell Acoustics makes two-way and three-way designs.
Wi-Fi models stream high-resolution music from apps and services and support AirPlay 2 and Chromecast. Bluetooth pairs play whatever's on your phone. Check the physical inputs as well, so the TV, computer and record deck all have somewhere to go.
Many decks use a belt drive, and some work automatically: one press lowers the arm and lifts it again at the end, which is gentle on vinyl and ideal if you're new to it. Bluetooth on many lets them play through wireless speakers, and some include a phono stage so they can be wired to speakers with an analogue input. Starting from scratch? Look for a deck bundled with its own speakers, which makes a complete system in one box.
Streaming speakers are set up and controlled in the maker's app, which also delivers updates and tone controls. With a Bluetooth pair, there's nothing to download. Think about who'll use the system every day.
Our hi-fi comes from Mitchell Acoustics. KEF offers its wireless models in several colours, so they can suit the room.
Each system is covered by the manufacturer's UK guarantee. Orders over £600 ship free and usually arrive within 3–7 working days.

One with amplification built in. All it needs is power and something to play from, with no separate amp or streamer.
Usually. Look for an optical socket or HDMI ARC on the speakers; lots of active models have both.
Yes, somewhere in the chain, to boost the record's signal. Some decks have one inside, so they connect straight to active speakers.
In a small or medium room, often, and more so with a sub added. Big or open-plan spaces are better served by bookshelf or floorstanding models.
KEF's driver design, which places the tweeter in the centre of the mid/bass driver. Because everything radiates from one spot, the balance holds up wherever you sit.
One that lowers the arm at the press of a button and returns it at the end of the side, which is easier and kinder to records than cueing by hand.
If it has Bluetooth, yes. Pair once and it reconnects whenever you switch on. Alternatively, run a cable to speakers that have an analogue input.
