Turntable for girlfriend


Hello all.  About 2 years ago I got into listening to vinyl records.  It's been a great hobby and I have really enjoyed accumulating and enjoying new records and trying new audio gear.  Recently, my girlfriend has also adopted the hobby.  She likes going to thrift stores and yard sales to find records.  Then heading home to listen to what she bought.  I'm excited that we have a hobby that we can share together.  I could use some advice from the group about buying an affordable turntable and amplifier for her apartment.  She is not very tech savvy, so she needs a turntable that is as plug and play as possible.  That also applies to an amp, so tubes are out.  I have a pair of Focal Aria 906 speakers that I can give her.  After that I wanted to budget about $1,000-1500 on turntable and amp.  I was thinking a Rega P1 and a refurbished Peachtree Nova 150 would do the job nicely.  Any thoughts?

I’d spend more on the table and less on the amp. Used Rega P3 or new Pioneer PLX1000.
