Which speakers will fill 5,000 cubic ft coherently


In porevious threads I've bemoaned the fact that my Kharma 3.2 FEs don't fill the room, 17 X 23 X 15 ft ceilings with a vertical enough soundstage, as though the speakers are literally too small. I have been advised to raise them,which I have done, , I have told to get taller, line arrays, even given names of custom speaker makers. Any specic recommendations from those that have had, and have conquered, this issue.

How about Vandersteen 5A's? Builtin sub amp - easy speaker to drive and fills my room perfectly - 23x15x14 with open back.
Vandersteen 5As certainly have great reviews. How sensitive are they to placement? Close to front walls?
I have mine out about 6 feet BUT since they have an adjustable 11 band bass eq and level/Q controls you can adjust for that pretty easy - soundstaging and imaging is better placed farther from the wall. They are rated at 87db but remember they have a 400wpc bass amp built in to each speaker. I drive mine with 70wpc Cary monos and they can play VERY loud if called on to do so ;)
Will they easily fill the room and does the soundstage extend vertically above the speakers (they are shorter than
the others I am considering)?
