While I love the speakers in my Novus NV10S, its biggest drawback is that the audio input is analogue, with a meagre 96k ADC sitting behind a 3.5mm line jack. In your search, I'd be sure to check for digital inputs (usb etc) over analogue audio - such as larrycalame's suggestion. I managed to make it work for myself but it was quite a faff.

I would like the experience to be with hardly noticeable latency and no noticeable buzz, yet with minimal muddiness.
I would just be playing in a room, no stage performance. I love the piano sound I hear from Pianoteq and would like to upgrade my instrument choices to that.

I use a Roland FP90X in that way and I love it. The Roland has a built in usb audio interface that works with either a Mac or Windows computer. It also has a very pianistic key action, a three stage equalizer, and a full sounding stereo 4 speaker array. It also has stereo line outs, in case you ever wish to connect it to external speakers.
