Speakers that image best from corners 12' apart

the subject line nets this query out, but I'm trying to find speakers to use in my living room. Klipschorns are out as this is a formal living room so WAF is a consideration. The room is 13'x15'. There is a wall unit 9' wide that will sit between the speakers. I've tried multiple speakers in this room but none like being spread that far apart. Presently I'm using Totem Sttafs and I pull them out into the room when listening. This isn't my primary listening room so I don't want to do that. I simply want a speaker that's optimized for corner placement and runs full range.

Budget-wise I'd like to stay under $1000, preferably well under that. I'm expecting to buy used.

Floor standing is preferred.

Is there a solution for me?

thanks!!

Corner placement, good imaging formal room with high WAF, and **well** under $1000?

And a wall unit...

Full-range speakers, most speakers really, that will meet these requirements will be tough to find. And don't worry, you would not find K-Horns for well under $1000 anyway.

Try and find some used Magnepan MC1s. They are wall-mountable; you can hang them with sheetrock screws. That might give you some flexibility with placement and might meet with the wife's approval. When not in use, they lie flat against your wall and you swing them out from the wall when you are ready to listen.
