Floor Stander or Monitor w/ 2 subs? What does the later give up in a large room?

OH, BTW to  everyone else. I have a pair of Infinity RS-1 which I plugged into the system. Since I have the 2 subs, I figured it may give me an idea concerning my question. So I took the Silverline Sonatas our of the path and put the RS-1 in. I was quite surprised at how good they did sound for cheap speakers. They lacked the midrange clarity of the Sonatas. My wife an I listened to them for nearly a week. By that time we knew there was no comparison at all. But it was eye opening as to what such small speakers could do. Then I removed the RS-1 and inserted the Sonatas. As soon as the opening note to the 1st song was heard, I just busted out laughing. The Silverlines were so much bigger and better in every way that it seemed ridiculous now to even try a comparison. 
As I reflect, Two things came to mind. Familiarity breeds contempt. I've had the Silverlines for 15 yrs or so. I knew they were a great speaker when I bought them. But somehow I had forgotten. the second is how easy we are to fool with something new. Even though I had these RS-1 for 10-15 yrs, I was somehow willing to believe they were really better than they were. This is why I usually put a new component in the chain and play it a week or so to acclimate it and me. Then I put the old back in. I've seen it happen where the old was better than the new and it was readily shown when put back in the chain.  Now, onward to my new room.....I hope.

LOL, I can identify! I got my Bolero's about 8 years ago and finally stopped thinking changes in my electronic's etc, would bring my other (older) speakers back to life and have stopped trying. Not even close. :-)

So, does a new room mean you’re no longer looking at monitors?  If you are, what’s your budget?  I didn’t see mention of that or maybe just missed it. 

@artemus_5 , do me a favor and take 10 minutes and look at the Salk Songbird.  

They are $1695 in a standard veneer and offer more choices of woods and dye’s than any other speaker builder I’ve seen.  You can get any wood with any color dye you want. Pictures do not do these speakers justice!  Glossy Automative finishes are available too.  
His speakers are really gorgeous. On top of that, the Songtowers use the Hiquphon OW-1 tweeter which is supposed to be very musical and a fantastic tweeter!  They’re $250 a piece.  The midbass driver is of high quality as well; the Seas ER15 from their prestige line.  It should be a nice organic sounding midbass driver that would complement the musicality of the Hiquphon well.   Add in a transmission line cabinet and gorgeous cabinets and you have a winner!   

If you are sold on a standmount, look at the Salk Ellis 1801b.  It uses the same $250 Hiquphon OW-1 and pairs it to a $260, 7” Seas W18 midwoofer from Seas Excel line.  These drivers are used in many of the best sounding speakers out there.  The Ellis has $1000 worth of high end drivers in a stunning cabinet for $2300.  Pretty remarkable.

I went with monitors on stands and they took up the exact footprint as the floor standers.  Next you are adding 2 subs to take up additional space and trying to integrate them properly.  That can be a challenge but can work fine.  
Now I I have floor standers with a Rel Stadium III that I kept over the Rel S3.  I don't use it all of the time but like having the sub.  I haven't heard the speakers you are looking at, but with the right amplification match they shouldn't give up in soundstage and might even sound better.
