I posted similar on the computer based music forum but got no response, so thought I would be cheeky and try here, hope thats ok!
I have recently got a Sonos ZP90, which I am loving, and now use it as my primary source running through my Arcam AV9/P7 feeding my PMC FB1is. I have been really surprised as to the quality of lossless files used in this way, and am now awaiting delivery of a ZP120 for the bedroom. However, I am not sure what speakers to get.
When I went to my local sevenoaks today, and asked what they recommended, he said any standmount speaker up to about £500, but then went on to try and sell me a discounted Leema Xero at £450. Now this is an almost £800 speaker (nominal impedance 6 ohms and power rated up to 200 watts!), surely the little ZP120 cant handle this properly? Dont get me wrong, I will be delighted if it can and happy to spend more than my original budget on the speakers if warranted.
I am of course going to demo as many speakers as possible, although so far none of the dealers I have been to are set up to demo using the Sonos ZP120 which is a little annoying!
So my question is this: What speakers do you guys run off your Sonos systems? Or what have you heard that sounded good/bad? What is the most you would spend if using the ZP120?
Thanks in advance guys n gals
