This has a great collection of folks with very high end systems and knowledge. It is actively moderated and is only for audiophiles... so there are no discussions of whether cables make a difference. Rudeness is also not tolerated at all.

For more commonly available brands, they have Audio Note, Harbeth, ProAc, Synthesis and Sonus Faber. Another interesting store is Command Audio in Falls Church Va. They carry more conventional high end brands and have quite a lot of lines, such as Magico, Raidho, Neat, Constellation, Audia, Aurender, and ClearAudio.
Is DSP room correction worth it with a high end analog system?
This question was inspired by a YouTube from “2021 Capital Audio Fest: Jefferson Room”. Even though a lowly MP4, this is the best I have ever heard a drum solo! The speakers are the Arion Apollo system. I question going through an ADA conversion coming from my quite high end analog front end with a tube preamp.

Profit margins include expenses for rent, inventory, sales staff, shipping, power and heat, and of course the owners own time. Profit margins in audio are in the low single digits.
