I'm going to through this out there - Shahinian Acoustics "Diapason Ensemble". They are located not far from you on Long Island.

Recommend speakers for a large living room
Hi, I am moving to a new apartment with a large living room (38" x 23", plus a dining area & kitchen). I am planning to have 2 different sitting areas given the size. Here is a picture of the floor-plan: https://ibb.co/J5szvj9
Everything is wood floors except on the blue squares where I plan to put carpet. I’ve been thinking of using omni-directional speakers (German Physiks Borderland) given the area is large and there are multiple listening locations. But I’d like to get some recommendations & also some ideas of where it would be best to place the speakers - so far my idea is to put them on the red circles.
My budget for speakers is ~$50,000.

@racamuti , I like the Shahinian's. But, they are more in the class of Ohm. Very spacious, but nebulous sound. If the OP wants this, then they would be a great choice. On the other hand, if the OP wants something that provides a detailed soundstage, I would opt for either Vandersteen, MBL, Sound Labs or Magnepan. I wish I could demo the Daedalus or Sonus Faber, as so many here on Agon have sung their praises. Bob |
My recommendation for the best audio system sound I ever heard had the Von Schweikert Ultra 11s in a huge room. After that, at half the price are the Ultra 9s good for large rooms as well. They are expensive but would have fit my previous home's room of 20w X 25+d X12 h Now my room is only 15w X 20 d X 10 h and I will probably settle for the VR55k |
I haven't looked at all the recommendations, but if no one has yet mentioned the Rockport Aviors at $38,500 you'd probably do well to check them out. https://www.stereophile.com/content/rockport-technologies-avior-ii-loudspeaker |
