Advice wanted for small factor office speakers


I am helping a small business owner set up office speakers. Mostly in waiting area and hallways for background music. Speakers will be passive, mounted high on walls and wires run over drop ceiling to a Pyle multi-zone amp. They will be run in mono, not stereo.

Any suggestions for mountable, good sounding speakers? Looking at Yamaha, Klipsch, Polk and Pyle brand. Does anyone have any experience or knowledge with good sounding, nicely built passive speakers?

(I have ruled out Sonos powered speakers since it’s not easy to run AC cords to powered outlets.)

Audiotroy, in ceiling dual stereo is not an option since owner of building will not allow ceiling mounting speakers. Thanks anyway.

Owner has a budget and not sure if Yamaha is within the overall cost cap. Thanks all for speaker recommendations.

Thanks for all the replies thus far. After a discussion with the business owner, she wants to insulate walls to see if she can reduce chatter and noise FIRST (before making the decision to add speakers and music).Space is for clinical massage.  We talked about how adding music might change the overall environment of her office and make the noise volume higher and she liked the idea of insulation. Stay tuned and I will post the outcome.
