There are pa speakers that sound HiFi enough, but those are very expensive. Not only the speakers themselve are expensive, but the more expensive ones usually need biamping, which increases costs dramaticly. Also, most full range pa speakers have response to about 100Hz, even the larger ones. You would also need a sub, which isn't only very large, but also makes the price higher. PA speakers are made for high sound pressure levels, good sounding PA speakers don't come cheap :).
By the way, most PA speakers have a 90x40 horn, so that wouldn't be a problem.
