Line Array Speakers info please

In other threads I've complained about my Kharma 3.2 FEs being too limited in my large-volume room - 17 X 23 X 15 feet high A-frame ceiling. Can anyone suggest Line Array Speakers that are no more than 6 ft tall, that can be placed close to the rear and side-walls? Budget $10-$12K.
They will be driven by Atma-Sphere MA-2s (220 WPC). Not interested in bi-amping. I am not familiar with this line of speakers and wonder how they would fare so close to walls (abbout 2-3 ft)?

Try AV123.com and check out the LS-6 and Ls-9 which easily fall into your budget. I cannot recommend these enough at their price point.

These speakers are interesting:

An "upgraded" effort. Close to your budget. Soon out for sale.

I am waiting for listener's reports. The drive to Illinois (Jam 'n Audio) is tough to get organized. Maybe one of my conferences will be near the speaker's audition site.

I own a pair of Selah Audio line arrays which maker Rick Craig dubbed "Array of Desire". I drive them with Atma MA-1 monoblocks and the arrays' impedance was designed specifically for my OTLs (a very flat nominal 10 Ohms). The arrays are just under 6 feet tall. They sound fabulous with my Atmas.

See a discussion thread on:

FWIW, The bass is phenomenal - I found I've no need for the matching stereo subs and will be selling them to some lucky person...
