There is more than one way to assemble a system. In your case you have gone from source to sink. No problem there. Now it seems you have a compatible match in a TT and amplification but have run out of budget (other post). As Paraneer states, matching speakers to your Brio is important, the 88dB, 6ohm minimum is a good recommendation.
You might consider the purchase of a set of Pioneer SP-22lr speakers which can be found online for no more than $130. I have a set in a second system and they are very good for the $$$. This will allow you to enjoy your system now and prevent a hasty decision regarding more expensive speakers while retaining your original budget wish. Afterwards, save some additional money, do your homework via online search, this forum, other routes. (You might give the folks at Music Direct or Audio Advisor a call.) You can stay within budget, enjoy now, and upgrade to your dream speakers later.
Please keep us posted. Enjoy!
