Hey Charlie! Your points are well taken! But my studio does the following: We mix and master the best damn CD we can - and use the best damn equipment we have at our disposal - including monitor speakers. We want it to sound great for the few consumers that own high quality stereo systems. We have found that listening in lesser environments - the person listening "on AM Radio in his convertible" is going to be happy if he can hear anything at all musical!
