>Since you haven't provided his precise text for quotation...<
If I may paraphrase a comment from Andy as well as from many others that E-Stat mentioned... "Do Your Own Homework"! :)
>I seriously doubt he would expect new speakers to sound the same!<
He did not omit speakers when he said "a component".
>I would suggest he merely thinks they ought to sound the same. It might turn out not to be so.<
You're summed up the very basis of the "objectivist" argument in your first sentence beginning with "they ouught..." and the "subjectivist" one in your second. What ought to be often isn't.
