Philharmonic Audio - Dennis Murphy
I just wanted to post this in case anyone is looking for speakers they would have another option to look at.
Their prices range from $1,600 to $3,000 which seems to be a very nice price range especially considering who makes them.

Mostly because with low sensitivity comes a greater chance for nonlinearity at SPL. I consider an 85dB average minimum SPL at the listening position, with 88db average preferable. Hundreds of watts are required for this speaker to put out dynamic SPLs over 100dB at the listening position. That's a pretty big ask. It's possible, even likely, that this speaker would be outperformed by other similarly priced speakers in HT and highly dynamic music like orchestra with regard to linearity and fidelity.
