I just built my best pal her first proper hifi,
In my 35 year experience buying used speakers can be a bit of a gamble, if they've been abused or dropped the damage to the voice coil can't be seen, if you buy them new you know they're good and look after them,
Plus they're what you actually listen to, so buying a decent set is a good basis for a system,https://www.richersounds.com/hi-fi/standmount-speakers/monitor-audio-bronze-1-black.html
I made her buy these, they're really very good for the money, and will stand a fair few upgrades in the future,
Buy the speakers and put them away until you can afford an amp for them,
The logic being, just buy something good and be happy with it,

Evening all - I'm looking at getting my first HiFi and would like some advice. Have a budget of £150-£200 and had in mind a CD player, amp and larger bookshelf speakers.
Is the below worth a go or would I be better off getting second hand parts and piecing a system together? Any pointers appreciated, it's all a bit new to me!
