I've looked into the Klipsch La Scalas/Cornwalls/Chorus before, and while I'd love them, I think the lady in the house will most definitely not. They just out way too big.
I have considered getting some other floorstanding Klipsch speakers, as I know they have high sensitivity so they might work well with tubes and/or a big space, but I don't really know which models (either used or new) are the best to pursue.
Some of the others I've been looking at (both new and used) are the Revel Concerta F12, Vienna Acoustics Bach, Monitor Audio RS6 and RS8, and as Knownothing mentioned, the Aperion Intimus 6T, but it's difficult for me to figure out how these will hold up in a large space.
I did have a chance to listen to the Paradigm Monitor 7s and the PSB Image T5 at only store near me. I found the PSBs to have very congested mids (just not to my taste), and while I like the Paradigms, they seemed to just barely be able to handle the room they were in, which was about 1/2 the size of mine.
