I've always wanted my own turntable setup, my dad had a great collection and I really miss the sound.  I've never had the time or funds to get started until now.  I've done some research and have settled on a few things but need some advise since this is all new to me.  Here's what I'm looking at so far:

Pro-Ject Debut Carbon TT ($399 on amazon)

Pioneer SB-BS22-LR speakers ($127/pair on amazon)

Pyle PP999 Pre-Amp (replacing that later with something like the Ballari VP130)

I need recommendations for a method to power those speakers (amp or receiver, etc).

Total budget is $800 USD or less for now.  I don't mind getting some lower end components now and upgrading later.  The system will be setup in my living room which is about 15x10.  I don't care about connecting other devices to the speakers other than maybe my computer (but that's not a dealbreaker for me).

Any help / advise is greatly appreciated
