    My suggestion would be a standalone record player that has audio and headphone out ....

    That ION MaxLP one is only £69.00 in the UK
    It's a decent suggestion and looks quite premium.

    I'd then pair it up with a good portable speaker.
    Can thoroughly recommend the Bose Soundlink Mini

    One of my friends who is a bit of an audiophile and hiphophead and has some high end speakers, amp etc was raving about the little Soundlink Mini he got. I had a chance to listen to it at New Years and it sounds great for its size and can fill a small room with good sound. Even the bass for the size of such a box is surprising.

    £250 would get you both of these and connector cables and a few vinyl records too.

    The soundlink can be used for this turntable and also for playing digital music too via computer or smart phones.

    • that tonearm looks pretty shit. in fact the whole deck looks pretty ropeyhans_glib
    • I second the Soundlink. My girlfriend got me a Soundlink Mini II for Xmas. As microkorg says the sound is impressive for something this size.Raniator
    • I've got a Soundlink as well. Fantastic sound, a little bass heavy, but I use it around the house and on our roof quite a bit.mg33
    • how can anyone call themselves an audiophile but compromise with bose or beats for audio is beyond me... seriously.Miguex
    • that's like calling yourself a runner while rocking skechers pushup shoes...Miguex
    • Who called themselves an audiophile, Migs? I have some Bose speakers and they're pretty good, but obviously not the bestIanbolton
    • Miguex - on the same budget what would you buy rather than bose? Certainly wouldnt vote beats.microkorg
