Disappointing Evening
You should have served more liquor,, much more. 
Sound mystery
What turntable etc. do you have? Does it really sound worse or just not as good as the CD player now? 
Which speakers to get for a Very Large Room.
GregI think it depends on our type of music.. Speakers that are engaging. At our shop we love the Wilson Benesch. In the past we have also enjoyed the Nola's. With your Joule Electra preamp you must be a tube lover, and that means spaciousness and... 
Which speakers to get for a Very Large Room.
This may be Much Ado About Nothing. I don't imagine you are going to place your speakers along the 22 foot wall and in about 3 feet from each side. I suspect you will place them about 9 feet apart and set up your listening area about 9 feet back f...

How do Dunlavys compared to new stuff?
I don't think they are current. They focus on frequency response, extension at both ends and don't really serve the music. There are new and much smaller speakers that would serve you better. Might even prevent a divorce. Think it through. Good luck
