    put a couple of panels up on the walls first reflection points it will do the job.

    Aesthetics are a bit difficult since one man's meat etc...Those Missions James linked to look good, can't find any measured performance but Mission is all Peter Comeau designs now so should be competent - if you like the styling. And there's no worries over your amp being able to handle them.

    TEAC VRDS 701T > Sony TAE1000ESD > Krell KSA50S > JM Labs Focal Electra 926.

    I have the Concept 20s and they are very good. These are a real bargain though.

    That is a large room and feel that you are limiting yourself by going for stand mount speakers. Including floor standers and panels opens up a huge range that could work for you. My favourites are Apogee and magnepan, which would work beautifully in that size room and a Krell powering them.
