Affordable Third Party Bookshelf Speakers for Sonos Amp

I am looking to connect two third party bookshelf speakers to a Sonos Amp. Are there any recommendations for affordable but strong performing speakers that combine well with the Amp?

    Thanks all for your responses. I’ll have a chance to check out some speakers over Christmas break at a not quite local, but accommodating Hi Fi store. The Dali/KEF/Q Acoustics seem to come up well in reviews, but I want to stick to 8 ohms in case I feel like I would go to 4 speakers some time in future.

    I will also listen to Klipsch and Mission. The seem to be rather polarising - lots of love and lots of  …..

    I’ll also keep an eye on the cables, etc.

    Thanks again and stay safe over the holiday period.

    If you get a chance to listen to the original Klispch don’t pass it up. Do not buy a pair as your spouse will kill you (53x31x28 and 220 pounds)) but you really need to hear one hooked to a hefty amp to appreciate what so many speakers are missing on the low end, even setups that have a Sub included.

    My spouse tolerated my smaller (40x24x24 and 200 pounds) La Scalla pair for a lot of years, the cat loved crawling inside too.
