what would you recommend for bookshelf speakers to be connected on Expert Pro 220 CI. 
The room size is 7,5m x 4,5 m (around 33 square meters). I already listened Expert Pro on Floorstanders (Dynaudio) and know that floorstander will fit better for this room size, but, somehow don't like floorstanders Smile in living room. 
I have narrowed my search towards: 
- Focal Sopra 1 
- Marten Oscar Duo/Trio 
- Tad Me1 
It is OK to attach a sub.  

Would you suggest something other? Or, out of these 3 reveal your favorite Smile 

Listening to the jazz /ambient/piano. 

Thanks
Zoran
Hi.
If possible give a try some kef reference 1 ,you might be positively surprised as I am with my expert 1000 pro.

Just a note i also had focal sopra 1 and diablo utopia lll..

Hi @winiar560
many thanks for expressing your opinion. 
Let me ask you, you mentioned that you "had" Sopra 1. 
Are you still running Sopra 1, or you amended them with Kef? 
btw, seems to me my local dealer has that in stock, will go there and give it a try. 
Cheers

Hi Zoran

I had sopra 1 first then upgraded to diablo utopia lll but found it actually I've preferred the previously owned sopra 1 to them diablos(they were extremely fast and acurate) but to me lost the magic I had with sopras.

The diablo utopia lll might be a better speakers for some people preffer more this type of sound or possibly own some warmer sounding amplifiers.

Had then decided to sell diablos and found some kef reference 1 at a great price I could not missed.

The kefs sounding lovely with my expert 1000 .
It could be a good test to compare them directly to sopra 1 but I am very happy with the result with kefs so will stay with them for a while longer.

Note that I also had a kef reference 3 floorstanders at some point before and as found them to bass overwhelming my small room so this time went with a standmounts.

Believe me or not the kef reference 1 standmount also still have incredible bass response and caused my room modes amplifying and I wasn't happy at first until ive finally decided to measure my room acoustically and aplied EQ dsp filter in the sweet room which have 90 % resolved the problem.
