Any particular reason you need fully auto over a manual with cue lever? If you must have new and fully auto for a low price then Denon DP300F $249 adds a better adjustable tonearm plus a removable cartridge https://www.accessories4less.com/make-a-store/item/dendp300f/denon-dp-300f-belt-drive-fully-a

Are the Logitech Z150 satisfactory on the AT-Lp60x? Or do they even work ?

Satisfactory? No. Z150 are tiny cheap computer speakers. They won't sound good for any audio source and will be a bit sound quality bottleneck for any audio source. Get at least better larger 4" Dayton Classic B40A $99 on sale for a small room. For a large room larger full size 6.5" Dayton Classic B

Starter setup, feedback appreciated

Size, quality, price, value. The Daytons have at least a bit better drives and crossovers than the Edifier R1280.
