If a small install firm (Read me) could only commit to 1 or 2 speaker manufacturers who would you guys recommend?

Sometimes the question is...who will the speaker manufacturer have as a dealer. Some territories are locked up, and large dealers can dictate the limiting of opening up new dealers in their area. Getting product lines is part art and part science. Most manufacturers will want to see some consistent performance other than a good opening order. Selecting product lines that you know you can work with and sell is advantageous. The fewer product lines you support, the stronger the relationship will become with the manufacturers. Too many lines doesn't create that strong loyalty.

See the post on Def Tech/Directed and my comment will make more sense.

AVDUDE you once recommended me some speakers for a manufacturer here in Florida but I don't remember if it is Definitive Technology or Phase technology
I'm always right. The only time I was wrong was the time that I thought, that I was wrong.
