For under 150 i would look at the Edifier R1700bt's, pretty much the best and less messy speakers for under 150. Also has bluetooth so your friend can play music off his/her phone without being tethered by wires, under 150 i wouldnt really look for passive bookshelfs and a seperate amplifier. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Edifier-R1700BT-Bookshelf-Speakers-Bluetooth/dp/B00MXY21LW/ref=sr_1_4?keywords=edifier&qid=1557966587&s=gateway&sr=8-4

LTT's Resident Porsche fanboy and nutjob Audiophile.

 

Main speaker setup is now;

 

Mini DSP SHD Studio -> 2x Mola Mola Tambaqui DAC's (fed by AES/EBU, one feeds the left sub and main, the other feeds the right side) -> 2x Neumann KH420 + 2x Neumann KH870

 

(Having a totally seperate DAC for each channel is game changing for sound quality)
