What is your equipment? What kind of sound do you like… are there aspects you want… great imaging? Coherence? High level of detail? Musical? Warm? Cool?
Sounds like you like Jazz… other genera? Room dimensions (10 x 12)? Any kind of speakers you have particularly liked in the past? Putting some photos of the room under your UserID would be really useful. Do you have complete control of the room? Or is placement negotiated?
My first decision might be technology based of preferred sound… Planar? Dynamic, AMT/Dynamic. Then towers vs stand + subwoofer.
Then bass heavy like B&W, really natural / musical like Sonus Faber… Martin Logan, Maggie’s? Totem are great punchy and pleasantly natural.
