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

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.

I second the Vandersteen 5a’s used. An incredible speaker quite capable of filling that space.  Vandersteen just recently came up with the Kinto,(sp) a replacement at that price point, so the 5a used has gone down in price as it’s just recently an “older model”.  Just a magnificent speaker at a kick ass price.
