In our first Hi-Fi podcast of 2024, we look back at the Hi-Fi vogues that stood out in the previous 12 months and predict where this will take the sector in the coming year.

From emerging challenger brands providing affordable entry points to high-end audiophile kit at spiralling prices, we examine what to look out for going forward to help you make sense of the ever changing Hi-Fi market.

Presented by Phil Hinton with Ed Selley and Ian Collen
