Aiyima A07 / "300w" x 2 class D amp with line level output (for the sub)
Neumi BS5 passive bookshelves (5" 2-way)
Monoprice 60 watt 8" powered subwoofer
$246.47 with free shipping after the $20 instant discount coupon on the Aiyima.
Having tone control could be nice but the Neumi's are fairly neutral sounding speakers particularly if you plug the ports which should be fine with the sub filling in the low end.
Otherwise if you can stretch by $6 you can remix this configuration if you are OK with the amazon Renewed version of the speakers, and get an upgraded amp with tone controls, a VU meter, bluetooth, PC USB + additional digital audio inputs, and vacuum tubes on the preamp side:The list below would put you $6 over budget but get you a more full featured amplifier:
