Complete setup:

Turntable: Fluance RT82 $299 with auto stop and then the optical sensor speed controlled servo motor for low wow and flutter and speed variation. Skip the older RT81 without the speed sensor. The acrylic platter can optionally be added later for $119 when back in stock. A later cartridge upgrade is the Nagaoka MP-110 instead of the Blue on the RT85.

Refurbished stereo receiver, PIONEER SX-10AE $149.99 $119.99.

Will you also be using the speakers with a TV for better movie and TV sound? Then consider an AV recevier. Denon AVR-X1500H 7.2 $599 $299. 4K HDMI, HDR, Audyssey MultEQ room correction EQ speaker setup, HEOs WiFi networking and streaming, smartphone app remote, Amazon Alexa voice control. It has a basic phono preamp built in to start with then upgrade to a better external one later.

Phono preamp if there isn't one build into the receiver: Taking the Guesswork out of Phonostage Gain. The ART DJ Pre II $67 has an adjustable gain dial. The popular Schiit Mani $129 has gain dip switches on the bottom.

Earlier today I went out to BestBuy and bought my first turntable! I walked in there planning on buying the Audio-Technica LP120. But I ended up buying this.

I have heard that this one is a really great table also (if it's not better), and I got it for $50 less than the LP120. However, I do have to wait about 6 days until it comes to my local store because it is a special order (none of the stores in the surrounding 250 miles have it either). I'm excited to have it come in and for me to start using it!

Definitely don't set them on the floor. If you moved them off the table, use stands. You'd want the speakers at ear level when you're sitting down and listening. But, yes, you can get those isolation pads off Amazon and they will work just fine

Art DJPre II

Pyramid 12v DC power supply

This combo was recommended to me a while back. I am quite happy and probably won't upgrade until I'm ready to drop $1k on a preamp.

Try banana plugs for a more secure connection.

If you want really, really affordable, the Parts Express Lepy 2020TI + Dayton B652 bundle for $50 gets you good sound for stupid cheap. Or you can get that Lepy amp standalone, as it's a solid budget unit, and pair it with something like the Pioneer SP-BS22-LR speakers, which are a great pair of bookshelf speakers for $100. The Klipsch R-15M are a great pair for a little over $150.

Also:

Sony SCSS5 - https://www.amazon.com/Sony-SSCS5-3-Driver-Bookshelf-Speaker/dp/B00O8YLMVA $138

BIC Venturi DV62si - https://www.amazon.com/BIC-America-DV62si-Bookshelf-Speakers/dp/B00006JPDI $117

Polk S15, refurbished - https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07TJ4D2LZ/ref=dp_cr_wdg_tit_rfb $166

Yamaha NS-6490 - https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00018Q4GA $130

Fluance SX6W - https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00067OS0A $130

M-Audio AV42 - https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00X741TB0 $150

Or you could look for vintage, but bookshelf speakers tended to either be gigantic and heavy (like my Bozak B-201 or B-402, which are bookshelf speakers in name only) or sound weak.

Does he have a stereo? You cant just buy a record player without an amplifier and speakers.

If he has an amp and speakers, this would be fine and its in your price range. Anything less will be crap crappy crap, or you'll be buying used which is hard if you dont know anything about record players. If he doesnt have an amp/speakers, you can get those for another $100-200 and make it a really rad anniversary.
