Hello all!

I was interested in buying one or two speakers (preferably one) which i would like to be able to connect to my laptop wirelessly, or via ethernet (more reliable?). After doing some research, i was disappointed because i couldn't find anything interesting or with decent enough looks (within my price range) and then i stumbled upon products such as these:
http://soundbridge.roku.com/soundbridge/index.php
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Logitech-Squeezebox-Duet-Network-Player/dp/B0012K6VIW

From what i understand, these systems are the intermediate between my laptop and the speaker(s). Unfortunately the logitech option is quite pricey(im not looking for something expensive) and i can only find the soundbridge through ebay (i live in the UK).

Budget : Up to 200 pounds is fine. I wouldn't mind spending more if it is really worth it.

Do you have any suggestions?

This is not a must for me and i would only consider setting up such a network if there is something interesting available. I listen to music casually and sound quality does not have to be perfect.
