Re: Speakers for announcements

["psghome2002" <psghome@xxxxxxx>]

That's a pretty small speaker requirement then! How about putting
them in the ceiling - I've got 7 sets of ceiling speakers in various
rooms. They sound great and look very good (probably less obvious
than wall speakers). I went for a variety of models including:

Sonance GRM2 - Single stereo to mono summing speaker (water
resistant) - for use in the bathroom =A390 ish

Systemline QED - Stereo pair for general areas =A3130 ish

Sonance 621 - Good quality stereo pair for listening rooms =A3240 ish

Also used 79 stand OFC cable

May be OTT for your requirements (whole lot cost over =A31000 - cheap
compared to what you can easily spend). My system was primarily a
whole-house audio system with feeds for Comfort, ACE TTS etc.
