Hi Goatwuss,
Your room looks very nice! It will be a real challange to get the acoustics right without damaging the spaciousness.
The high ceiling is very cool, but may quite be the cause of the poor sound. To keep costs down and if you don't mind some DIY, I could send you some pictures as how to build you some RoomTunes (like the ones from Michael Green Audio).

They're quite simple to build; a leightweight wooden frame with R13 isolation material in it, covered with cloth.
Voila!
If you choose the right cloth (Let your lady choose!!!) you might be able to get that hard sound under control,
without destroying the looks of your home.
Please let me know what you think of this idea.
Best regards,
Roy
