what speakers to purchase

I have a large room 24x24 with 23 ft cathedral ceilings. Against 1 wall are windows and fireplace that go all the way up and wood floors. My current equipment contains Theta Digital Dreadnaught ll (250x5) and Casablanca 111. I am really torn on what speaker to turn to. Can anyone help. Some speakers that have been brought to my attention are Aerial,Wilson sophia/duette,sonus faber.

Thanks for any feed back

I second the big B&W's, only because a buddy has them in a similar room and they sound fantastic. He had some amp issues, and finally got them really rockin' with McIntosh 501's (which he got because they didn't sound good with my Maggies) and the sound is very full and coherent. Great high's and mids and very tight bass.

Look at Albert Porters system, the room looks similar to how you describe yours.

Thank you for your responses. I took your advice and went with with Wilson Duettes with stands.Matched them up with a JL AUDIO F 113 sub and Cardas clear cables. WOW I was so impressed with how this system performs with the conditions that where thrown at it.
Now I need to find a music server that gives me not only the best performance but the easiest to use...

Bkoenig,

I use an Ayon S5 network player. It's pretty straightforward to use and sounds fantastic. An S3 would be another option.

Cheered,

John
