Speakers to pair with Quicksilver mid mono


Preface: I know virtually nothing about high end audio. My step dad passed away a couple years ago and he had counterpoint preamp, amp and Klipsch corner horn speakers. After he passed, the amp broke and my local audio store (Fred’s Sound of Music in Portland) recommended a pair of quicksilver mid monos to replace the counterpoint. So I purchased those for my mom to continue using the system.  She no longer can use the system, so it’s now mine  

I’m now selling the corner horns because I don’t have the space for speakers that large. 
 

I’m looking for good speakers to pair with the counterpoint pre amp and the QS mid monos. 
 

I understand that the tubes inform what speakers pair best. The tubes on these are Tesla E 34 L  513 and the small ones E88cc

from reading other posts, here are some answers:

 It will be setup in a large  great room with the speakers up higher, about 7’ off the ground with 14’ ceilings. 

I mostly listen to 60s/70s and mostly Grateful Dead. 

I really liked the sound of the corner horns. My parents listened to mostly jazz. 

Max budget is $2,000 for a pair but I’d prefer to spend significantly less.  I have no preference on new or used.

forgive my ignorance. I’m trying to learn as much as I can.  
 

thank you!

 Why are the speakers going to be 7 feet off the floor?  Seems to add some wrinkle to the equation...

Mid monos are nice amps. The height off the floor is very odd. I'm down with the suggestions here.

There's a FB group for Quicksilver with nice people. You might poke them, too.

 

Mid Monos are great amps. I've used mine with Heresy II, III , Forte IV , also some low efficiency speakers.    All with great results.    

The way the way the room is configured don’t leave many options. Here is a picture.  There is no space in the left side floor. Only option is in the left side cabinetry.  I could probable put a left speak in that cabinetry and mount the right speaker to the wall. 
 

I wish I could keep the existing corner horns but they are massive.
