Speakers for audiolab 9000P & Q

I've got the Audiolab 9000 setup.  I have Klipsch Heresy IVs and a Paradigm sub (to lazy to see what model at the moment).  The Heresys sound muted, not sure why.  Had them before the current set up, still sounded the same.  Moved them into different locations, as much as possible.  They sound good, just kind of muffled.  Obviously I'm no expert, just trying to see if they're even a good match for this set up, and if not, what might be.

@hardrocker69 have you used other speakers with your Audiolab 9000 integrated system that sounded pleasing?

How about a description of the room the system is in?

Are your Heresy IVs speakers broken in, several hundred hours on them?

Room is 17' (side with speakers) by 30' by 8' tall.  Couch, loveseat, big ottoman, etc.  Not the perfect listening lay out.  It's a family room.  Klipsch have maybe 75-100 hours on them.  I did buy a set of stands to get up above seating, they help.  I have a pair of Sony SSCS3s, but haven't tried them.  This is my first attempt at having a "big boy" system. Im sure it's not as impressive as many, but I'm trying, lol.  I've tried my best to do research, and don't have the $$$ to continually buy and trade/sell equipment.

you either love the Kipschs or you don't. They are better matched with a tube amp. I love Audiolab but I would not pair them with Klipsch. If you don't want to change either, then not a clue, other than changing you sweetspot?

If you only have 100 hours on the speakers, are they new? Can you return them?
