Horns with good timbre and tonality?
I’m not familiar with horns, but my experience with ATC speakers is that they very much reproduce a “live” sound.  
Full range stand mounted speakers
ATCs have metal grilles. They don’t go low on paper, but the bass is tight and sufficient for most people.  
Best speakers for classic rock
I”d get whichever used ATC floorstander you can afford. Built like tanks, sound like live music, go loud with very low distorsion, not colored. Get a sub if necessary.

Bass- at what frequency does it change from sounding like a string to just a low tone?
OP here. I brought the low pass filter down 8 and lowered the volume by several clicks. I think things are better. When I play tracks that I know have low, clear, string-sounding notes, it’s marvelous. It’s hit or miss on random tracks, which is ... 
Bass- at what frequency does it change from sounding like a string to just a low tone?
Audio rusty: that makes a lot of sense to me. If you were me, where would you have your low pass cross over if your speakers dropped off six at 48?

Thanks, y’all. I’m learning a lot.

My room has a slanted wall of windows in front of the speakers, closer to one than the other. Beside that is a rounded wall of windows. The view is wonderful--no chance of drapes. The ceiling is quite high, vaulted, octagonal, with long beams brea...
