Oppression within the speaker industry and how it can be stopped?

As we all know, speaker companies have been oppressing us audiophiles for a very long time. The question is how it can be stopped? 

The insistence on ''flat as pancake'' response is only one example of this. Some companies offer a bit of a dip in the mids. But as we all know, if we weren't being oppressed we could CHOOSE whatever response we liked. 

The so called linkwitz riley 24db crossover and variations thereof is an evil device which has been going on for a long time in the speaker business. 

Butterworth 12db vilified as dip at crossover. QB3 BB4 ports. constant directivity. The list goes on and on. 

I have even attended speaker demos where I was prohibited from playing my own choice of music cds that I'd brought along. 

The wicked speaker industry must be stopped before its too late. We must demand maximum freedom of choice before THEY bully us into utter submission.

I politely suggest that the test of whether or not one has too much time on their hands is whether they read and reply to these Kenjit posts.

I realize I have just tested positive.

Still, proof of concept.

There is no collective "we", other than we know it is just a matter of time until this thread, like most of your other silly ones, gets deleted. No doubt, sooner than later.
