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

A bunch have already been mentioned, but I'd look here

MoFi SourcePoint V10 Master Edition $8,000

Arendal 1528 Tower 8 $12,500 or Monitor 8s $6,800

Fyne Classic 12s OR 703s OR 702SPs - Used under $10,000

Volti Luceras used under $10,000

Pure Audio Projects Trio 15s $8,500

Revel Salon 2s (Sometimes under $10,000

Another vote for Legacy Focus SE.  You won't find a better full range speaker around $10.5K.  These are incredible speakers. Check them out! 

The price has gone up to $15-18K depending on finish. You can probably find a used pair for less than $10K.
