Yeah, there is a quality, avoid strings like boomers etc, I'd go with some Ernie ball strings they're amazing if you want some sweet tone and heavy sound.
Worst advice ever.
They are cheap. You get what you pay for, so be prepared for easy snaps and slipping. Also easy gunk build-up.
I personally like DR's. Some prefer d'addario (my second choice).
And the buzzing is more likely that your action (bridge height) is too low. I'd suggest going to a local music shop and getting them raised to the right level, as I don't think you're ready to do a fix like that by yourself.
