Recommendations for 5k upgrade
I've owned a DSPeaker unit, and as Roscoeiii notes it is an inexpensive, and for many effective way to help tame bass problems below the Schroeder frequency in your room (approx. 200 hz in many rooms). The DEQX unit is functionally quite different... 
Recommendations for 5k upgrade
You might consider a DEQX unit, which offers speaker correction (frequency, group delay, phase), room correction, and sub integration with electronic crossovers of a wide variety. Mine has been my favorite upgrade in many years; a friend purchased...

Best Online Music Retailers
Any particular favorites for purchasing and downloading lossless wav or flac files of popular artists? Most of the sites I've found offering lossless have a limited selection of fairly obscure, though sometimes good, artists. Thanks. 
Just when I thought digital could not match analog
In fairness, the OP has been a member since at least '08 since he has feedback dating back that far. Could still be a sales pitch, but it's not as clear as if he had just signed up this month. 
Tight accurate midfield monitor pair suggestions
Second on the Lipinski's. Stereophile has a review of the 707's on line, most of which applies to the 505's as well.
