R1700BTS

I would consider the edifier options, 1200 or 1700 series, they lack a little in the bass department but they are super high value for your money and they fit the budget.

Pass on cheap brands, that system is not worth spending $300 on, the speakers are cheap junk. If you need to go low cost bare minimum...

I'm so happy to see the cheapest Fluances.So many people get it wrong with the more upmarket ones, same with the U-Turn orbit.The more upmarket ones have carts that are more expensive, but not better, and are severely mismatched with the arm.
