Speakers for weird sized room.....


So, I've recently gotten a dedicated listening room that is 9 feet wide, by 19 feet long, and am looking for a pair of speakers that may match well with this room size.  I currently have some PMC fact 8, and want to move to something better.  I have not tried anything in this room yet.  I have around 10 to 12k usd to play with.  

Thanks!!

Long wall or short wall?

If it's the short wall, then dipoles come to mind.  Dipoles can be placed right smack up against the sidewalls because they naturally have a nulls to their sides, but they do like to have a fair amount of distance behind them, at least 3 feet and preferably 5 feet or even a bit more.  This distance from the wall behind them imposes a time delay on the arrival of the backwave energy, and ime this is highly desirable.
