I forgot to respond to your question about dealers.

Someone suggested B&H Photo-Video. I buy from them occasionally and I 
am in their store several times a year. In my experience, their staff 
are much stronger, in terms of knowledge, on photo gear than audio 
gear. The only reason to use B&H as a dealer is that their prices are 
sometimes cheaper. However, their pricing on audio gear is often no 
better than elsewhere.

Unless B&H offers a significantly more attractive price, I would use 
one of these specialized audio companies, all of which I have dealt 
with:

www.trewaudio.com (Nashville, Toronto, Vancouver)
www.coffeysound.com (Los Angeles)
www.gothamsound.com (New York)

Others may have additional suggestions.
