speaker choice for new 20x30 audio room

Finally getting an opportunity to set up a dedicated audio room. Its a separate out building from the house. 2x6 construction, fully insulated 20' wide 30' with 10' ceilings. Full HVAC and adding padded and carpet floor over 6" existing concrete floor. After heavy texture and new paint, I plan to add acoustic treatments, just he basics for starters, bass traps, wall panels, ceiling clouds and going with a rule of thirds layout for speaker placement. 

For now I will be running everything from an Emotiva Pre-Amp, Peachtree 500 Amp, Bluesound Node for streamer and a Pontus II DAC.

Budget for the new speakers will be $5000 to $10,000. this will be a dedicated listening room, We listen to everything from Dianna Krall to Metallica Classic Rock, Blues, Country.. you name it. Just looking for recommendations of speakers I should be considering for this specific room dimension.

Lots of speakers I've not listened to, however, I have listened to Maggies and compared to Audiovector, and Maggies don't hold a candle. I also listen to everything from Diana Krall, Joss Stone, Chris Stapleton, to Metallica and Rammstein, and the speakers are happy to play it all. 

My vote would be Audiovector R3, if you can extend the budget a bit go with the top model, if you can't go with the middle and you can upgrade later.
