Couple of thoughts:
if you place them in front of windows, you need to do something about the
windows; you will also be partially blocking the heating for the room as
the heat ducts are right under the windows. You will also not be able to
use the fireplace, which I presume is gas.
I'd put them on the long wall and live with the consequences. Or, I'd
sell them and buy 3.7s.
As an aside, have you ever lived in a house with ceilings that high? Your
heating bills are gonna be high high high (I notice snow, so you're
obviously in a northern climate). And the room will never be warm.
Good luck.

I've used this room for over 25 years with none of the problems you write about. However listening to my Tympani IV-A there is troublesome because it's too close to house traffic.
That is a very large "cavity" to fill with sound. I am not sure the IVa is capable of that. It will need treatment to get a suitable acoustic for good audio reproduction.
