Advice needed: Record player and speakers

freshprints [Edit] [Delete] 14:42, 13 August '10

Making the plunge to really get into buying and playing vinyl. I've got a fair number of records but only my dad's old record player (with little built in speakers) which is pretty lame and always skips, which i'm worried is gonna damage my records so i've stopped using it.
I've got a bit of spare money so wanted to go for something for pretty good. I've read good things on some forums about this bad boy: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Project-PRJ-ESSENTIAL-BK-Essential-Turntable-Black/dp/B003IZX92U/ref=pd_ts_ce_55?ie=UTF8&s=electronics but is there anything else that people would recommend?
Need to get some speakers as well. Does it make more sense buying an expensive record player and some cheap speakers or vice versa?
Sorry for all the questions! Thanks if you have any advice x
