Quite a tall order.
You obviously have to prioritize, if you had said all out sound quality then I would have recommended seperates, Richer sounds is a great place to go to get cheap seperates.
But you seem to want one which can connect to an iPod and laptop. Assuming you want a simple connection, most laptops and all mp3 players have a headphone out socket. You can connect this to normal stereo RCA connects to any hi-fi that has an extra set of inputs (assuming they aren't phono inputs).
I would recommend going to Richer sounds and looking for a Denon M30. They are by far the best sounding small system was the Denon (and I think they used to cost around £240, see if you can get a deal on one at Richer Sounds).
Personally I would recommend seperates, and for under £200, get some Cambridge Audio ones. They may not look as good, but they will sound great!

Does it matter if its not brand new? if not, then buy a
Sony CMT-CPX1 HIFI from Ebay.....it has proper bass/treble controls with tone defeat for the purist... non of those dodgy graphic equalizers... High Quality little machine.....
I have never heard such a superb sound, it has a digital amplifier, cd, aux in, 70w'rmsx2, and its tiny.... takes ipod with a lead, but not sure about laptop...( it will play the sound from a laptop, but not exchange files etc.)... wont regret it....

basically bypass for your community Bestbuy and get you a Yamaha homestead theater device. you'll get all the audio device and reciever all in a unmarried massive container for about $400. i like to recommend Yamaha because the recievers are many of the proper. maximum recievers have a lot less that 10% THD (total Harmonic Distortion) which does no longer sound like a lot yet Yamahas have like .07%. Incase you don't know what it is the following it is going. pretend you've your stereo on CD besides the undeniable fact that the cd is stopped. once you turn the volume up you initiate to hearken to a hiss by the audio device. Thats distortion. All stereos and recievers have it. very few have decrease than others. this signifies that you're going to hearken to bigger crystal sparkling song and alot a lot less of that hiss. no longer to practice that Bose used to apply Yamaha recievers for there speaker platforms...(so as that would want to allow you to know something).So in short...get the Yamaha homestead theater container for about 400 and get thicker speaker wires for some more desirable proper high quality sound. And basically delight on your fantastic sparkling sound :)

Sound is a personal thing to suit different tastes so you ought to audition audio systems before you buy. What sort of music you are into?

I have a Philips system that does most of what you ask. I got it from Lidl at 143 €. Check out their website to see when they are doing a similar special offer near you.
