"There is nothing inherent in reproducing a wide bandwidth, i.e., 20 Hz to 20 kHz which has anything to do with clipping. "
I beg to differ. Kind of depends on ones selected recordings but I would suggest most high frequency information being reproduced is due to artifacts of the recording not musical content.
To me this seems obvious (its the system that sounds bad), others would chose to dismiss the recording (because it sounds bad).
It's much harder to find a system that sounds great on most recordings - much easier to do if one limits what gets played back. If someone wants to tell me the good stuff doesn't sound as good I'm not going to argue about it - that just isn't as important to me.
So there is no reason a system needs to be flat to 20khz and in truth there may be plenty of reasons why it should not be - as discussed in earlier comments.
I hope this is responsive to your point?
