Filling a 6600 Cu. ft. room

Hi there I am curious to see just how large of speakers and how many sub woofers it would take to fill a 30x40 space

Its a barn and has vaulted ceilings obviously due to a barn.
Im not certain what the spacing up there would be

Im dreaming of one day getting the genesis 300 when im on top of the world. I havent heard them, I just have extreme faith in arnie nudell and havent seen many speakers that really make me wanna upgrade from B&W Matrix 804's. The JM Labs mezzo Utopias interest me as well as the leagcy focus 20/20. I have heard the new Etopia EM with the VTL Seigfrieds and was blown away and its not the greatest reference but i have the focal utopia components and subs from 2000 or so in my car and they do rock just amazing, I even find myself listening to the jazz staion occasionaly because it comes in well and im not a jazz guy. Any way Ive been looking at the Velodyne HGS18, Paradigm Servo 15, I know enough to know i can no longer go with what seems cool and I need to get help from folks that really know whats up.

Basicly I am building a barn, I am going back and forth on putting a listening room in (Expensive) or just putting my stereo on one side of the house and not having to build any walls except for the bathroom, and it would be 6 foot wools and a barn ceiling 1/2 or 2/3 as much space, MY Cu. Ft. was off

Ok so in response to many comments.

My listening tastes are mostly Rock, Reggae/Dancehall, I love older bluesy rock. A little Hip-Hop, Rap, Funk, R&B and I plan on watching movies on it as well.

I want to have a um kind of blend between filling the space and dedicated listening area. More towards msolid listening space where I can still rock out while working around the house or cooking. Part of me would prefer to do a second system where I could do inwall speakers throughout the house for such purposes but the expense to be worthwhile wouldnt make sense to me as I want to build one fine system

As far as Subs go I have been looking into the Velodyne HGS15's and 18's as they have come down signifigantly in price and velodyne can fix the amps for me as there only 2 hours away

The most important thing to me is getting strings of a guitar right and being able to take a little bit of serious pounding. If its a reference I have found Equitech really puts out the sound im looking for. I know its just a conditioner but it really makes the chords just seem right.
