create a system for 2K


I have between $2-2.5k to assemble a system (can be used equipment) for a very good friend.
He is a musician and listens to small jazz ensembles and alot of world music.
He wants a simple 2-channel set-up w/cdp only at this point to go in a medium (22x14) sized room.
I'm looking for suggestions for a complete set-up including all cable and other important tweeks, if they are essential to the system- I'm looking for players who play particularly well together- a million thanks-

I assembled a system for less than $2200 (including taxes & shipping) from dealer demos, closeouts, ebay, and Audiogon. I think it sounds pretty damn good:

Speakers: Rega Jura
Integrated Amplifier: Myryad MI-120
CD Player: Rega Planet
Turntable: Rega Planar 3 2000 w/ RB 300 and Elys Cartridge
Phono Stage: Myryad MYM 33 MM
Speaker Wire: Audioquest type 6
Interconnects: Nordost Blue Heaven & Tara Labs Prism 55i
