Apologies if this is in the wrong place, or has been done to death (i did search for other 'first' posts but ended up even more confused.
I recently received a Crosley Cruiser as a present as my first turntable, but have found in the last few weeks that brand new records often skip, and sound quality is lacking to say the least. The reviews i have seen of the product since pretty much back up the problems unfortunately.
I have been looking to buy a new system, but i have no understanding of the components needed, and have a budget of around 200-300 (student), which i have since realised is nothing compared to the price of some of the set ups i have seen. I am not looking for anything to be blowing my mind as the paper thin walls tend to limit the volume i can play music at. Any recommendations for a system (turntable,speakers/whatever else is needed) would be greatly appreciated.
