Here's a pic of a setup I once had.
http://db.audioasylum.com/cgi/m.mpl?forum=mug&n=122417&highlight=scubaduderon&r=
Eminent Technology LFT-VI's and LFT-IV's. These guys would tear the house down, and produced very palpable bass energy. More than enough for your room. I can't help but believe that a pair or 2 of the VIIIb variety would work well for you. You'd have to have more power that 70 watts but the Eminents aren't as fussy as other planar speakers as far as placement goes. I found about 2 feet from the back wall was good enough.
Best of luck,
Ron
