I have a different approach to keep costs down these days...I like pro horns that aren’t marketed for home use, but, they can beat the daylights out of anything... like a pioneer xy-3b, it had some tad hands in it. Danley, electro-voice, etc make some cool stuff..You need large subs to go with such things, of course.
Within that realm there are different ways to skin your cat with the intention to create a superb home reproduction, but I totally get where you’re coming from.
If you let audiophiles near anything, price will go up...So, it’s not a bad idea to look at pro markets that audiophiles generally don’t know about (In fact, audiophiles need to be chased away with a broomstick from the other realms if you want lower prices).

However going by a very recent tête à tête of mine, and assuming it has a representative nature, I’d say chances for that to happen (i.e.: an audiophile invasion of pro market grounds) are slim. It’s really their feathers that are ruffled when you’re trying to correct disinformation and a less knowledgeable, preconceived approach to named realm of speakers.
