I am Looking for That Elusive 3 Dimensional Room Filling Soundstage


I have heard it half a dozen times at home, small room, Primaluna HP Integrated or a Rogue Atlas Magnum II and RP-1 Pre and believe it or not a pair of close to 30 year old Paradigm Export Monitors.

The experience I had, I can only describe as sitting in an aquarium when the litlle rectangular glass aquarium was filled with liquid engulfing you from all directions with no awareness of the speaker boxes...it was just perfect!

The room is approximately 12 x 13 x 9, small bedroom converted to a den!

So the question is what speakers does everyone recommend to provide the same experience?? I have a budget of $2000 for the next little babies so let’s not talk about Focal uber expensive stand mounts at $9500 thank you!

Monitor not floor standers and the Primaluna is gone, it’s all Rogue And yes, I would consider a pair of floor standers that are not to intrusive.

A number of people have mentioned room treatments.  I agree.   In an untreated  room with those dimensions, you are going to have a confused mess from early reflections that really frustrate any attempts at achieving your goal.  I spent a lot of money and effort chasing better sound not realizing how important the room is.  For me, utilization of REW to discern room issues has been a game changer.  My room is still under treated, but little by little I add more treatments as I figure out where I can make the biggest impact.  I have no intention of changing any of my current equipment until the room is where it should be.  
Another + for room treatment. The room and setup gives at least 50% of what you will hear. Not magic, just physics.
Room Treatments, I need a primer!
How do you decide what treatments to do, where does one buy it, how does it look (WAF) and what will it cost? Educate me,  I’m pretty good with physics!
I'm using Primacoustic panels, purchased from Sweetwater Sound (no affiliation, just a customer). I installed them on all four walls plus the ceiling. You need a helper to determine your first reflection points. This requires a flashlight and a mirror. This made the biggest change I've ever experienced in over 35 years in audio. That plus meticulous attention to the setup finally gave me that wonderful elusive 3D effect. 
WAF doesn't apply here. I have a dedicated room. That's a big plus. The room looks more like a recording studio. It definitely looks "purposeful", but it sounds WONDERFUL...
