Speaker Help Please: Floorstanders around $1Ok to fill very large space with no sub


Hi Gang, haven’t posted in here in years...
A great friend of mine is going through major remodel and looking for 2 large floor standing speakers to fill a great room 38’ long x 20’ wide with a celling that slopes in one direction from 15’-8’. so about 7200 cubic feet. 
He is very serious about music. Used to book bands. He listens to a lot of New Orleans groove-based music and Americana. His wife loves female singers, like Brandi Carlisle.
My main advise to him is, since he/his wife don’t want a sub, they will need speakers with sufficient low end.
Haven’t thought too much about amp yet.

He will also use the system for 2 channel home theater watching.
Thanks for any suggestions

GoldenEar T66 as long as you have ac outlets to plug them in. They have built in subs.

What form factor is he looking at what style of the room?  I had to do the same thing for a living area and went with the Aventgarde Zero XD in white and have a small Simaudio streamer sitting behind one. This cleared the clutter and just have two power cables from speakers into wall. They are very cool looking almost like sculpture/art versus large drivers and wood drawing attention. They have the speed of electrostats and the bass of regular cones. They fill up a 30 x 40 room for me no sub. I used to have Magico, Magneplanar, TAD, etc so am pretty picky.

PS I am selling my home in Dallas and downsizing so am getting ready to list mine for sale. I bought them new from AD for about 24k.  About 100 hours on them. Going to list them for less than half.

You can't go wrong with Klipsch Cornwall IV's. For under $7k you can get all one would ever want. 

You put that scanspeak beryllium tweeter and you wont have problems with sound.the human voice typically sits 200hz  1k in most reviews. You can paint them with high quality paint that matches her car. Many options. Tekton and happy listening.
