Need Speakers at least 4 feet high


Very disturbing what wives can do - first it was move them closer to the wall - did so, at significant cost of soundstaging and imaging - next, I come home and there is that huge, upholstered chair that she is crazy about, the size of the Whire House, completely obscuring the speaker! "What's the problem"? She asks, get higher speakers, then!!" So, I need your help. To do just that. I cant even see the right speaker now. The house-sized chair is planted right in front of the right speaker! Her revenge.
Budget - about $10-12K, must have coherence of Kharma 3.2 Enigmas, which they will replace. (And which some lucky soul with a kinder wife can buy:) Must image 2 ft from front wall, 8 ft apart, room size, 23' X 16 ft X high A type ceiling. System: EMM CDSD/DCC2, Sota Cosmos V, EAR 324, AS MP-1, AS MA 2.2,(200 WPC, Class A, OTL - likes 8 ohm inpedance) PAD Dominus S/C.
This is a serious request of y'all, so please, despite your suggestions of dumping the chair and the wife, let me know if there are any speakers out there that I should look at.
Thanks.

Gorgeous 6" stands from Timbernation (the man does beautiful work) are in place and have solved the problem. The Kharmas actually have opened up in this big room and sound better even pre-chair dilemma. Thanks for your help!
Great choice Springbok; can you post any pictures of the speakers on the 6" stands? I want to see how massive the stands had to be and how the speakers look on them. Maybe you could create a Virtual System with pix? Thanks!
