Powered speakers for a turntable

Putting together a system for my adult daughter. Getting her a turntable and giving her an integrated amp. She however has a small apartment and might prefer powered speakers. Considering PSB AM 3/5 or possibly Peachtree M25s or possibly Vanatoo Transparents? Any thoughts or comments?

Depending on budget : active speakers ,,,TRIANGLE ELARA and KANTO YU-6

I’ve had both in my C systems …. each has its strengths and warts

I love my Vanatoo speakers and in fact have two pairs.

Vanatoo are fun; I've heard them over at least ten years and would like them in a small area.

My question is, what does the RIAA equalization from the turntable to give a line-level signal to the powered speakers? I didn't think the Vanatoo speaker had a dedicated phono input but am not sure.
