Will this speaker work

Hi, I'm completley new to this so dont really know what I'm talking about yet. I've been wanting to get into this for a while so am finally doing some research into it. I like the pro-ject debut carbon evo for a turntable. Speaker wise I was looking at the pioneer dj dm-40 2.0 active speakers. I've heard that getting a pre-amp, amp and passive speaker is better but I think that will be too expensive for now and I can always upgrade later. If i get the carbon evo and these pioneer speakers can I just connect them with an RCA cable and it will work or are there still other components I'd need? Thanks

Hello Oliver!  Im a little late to the party and haven't read the entire thread so forgive me if I'm asking stuff thats already been covered.  

Whats your budget after your turntable purchase?  

If you are trying to just go active, check out Totem Kin Play ($750 new from tmr right now), Kanto Tuk, Adam T5v or T7v, Dynaudio X14a, Dynaudio Xeo 3.

Some of these have on board dacs some do not. Some will keep the signal all analogue which may be important for you since you are doing vinyl.

I'd look into Schiit Audio for decent inexpensive phono preamp or dac.
