Speakers are really a matter of personal taste. Certainly room acoustics play a big part how a speaker sounds. Your room is plenty big for a great system.
It sounds like you are jumping around a lot… maybe not… but from what you said. Listening to what manufactures say, or advice from folks who you do not understand their values can lead to unhelpful advice.
I would recommend you keep the speakers you like the best and then slow down. One person’s better is another’s worse. Your room acoustics and system components are unique. Learn what you have inside and out. Spend a few hours learning how to optimize your speaker placement. Jumping around switching things can take you no where but to confusion.
Once you have optimized your system, then you need to determine where you want to go. Any component change will impact the sound. I would spend some time listening to high end systems to determine what you like. Then research, read Stereophile, The Absolute Sound. Do you want to assemble a high end system? If so read: The Complete Guide to High-End AudioBook by Robert Harley. These things should set you on the right path. Unless you have unlimited funds it is a lot of work assembling a great system, but it can be really fun and rewarding.
