Any shows coming up?

It looks like these shows do not happen as often as I thought. I found CES in LA next week, and Rocky Mountain next fall. Nothing on the east coast. I was really hoping to hear the best of the best all in one place and save time not having to go from showroom to showroom. Looks like I will have to do it the hard way. Thanks for the responses.

Thanks to all of the above for your help. For the past year I have been trying to achieve true high end sound with my system. The problem is, since I have never heard a truly high end system, I have no point of reference. I thought shows would be a good way to hear what a truly great system sounds like if there was one close by. Apparently not. In the Wash DC area I have tried Myer Emco only to learn they are really just a cut above Circuit City. I also tried Soundworks, but they practically asked for a written guarantee that I was going to buy something before they would take me seriously. This happened on three seperate visits, so I assume it must be store policy. Does anyone know of a store near DC where they carry audiophile grade gear and know the value of building a relationship with their customers?

I did not know about either of those stores. Thanks for your help.
