You may as well keep in in the family. The Klipch RB81 II falls precisely in your price range.
Pairing the 8″ bookshelf speakers with a sub will give you good frequency response pretty much throughout.

I can vouch for the Phono Box MM. It’s pretty good. Not as good as the Schiit Mani, but pretty good if you want to save some cash.
The EVO is a really good turntable, but if your budget is only $800, I’d look at the Fluance RT82 ($300), Cambridge AXA25 ($225, link below), & the best passive speakers under $300. Maybe these Klipsch RB-81 IIs?

Just sliiiiightly above budget.
