that the problem lies in your stereo system. A reasonably produced stereo recording, reproduced on even a modest, but carefully chosen system can be a revelatory experience. Just about anything reproduced on a boom box or similar will sound like overproduced phase distorted drek.
I am a fan of mono- albiet recordings originally created in mono. "Mono" is capable of extreme dynamics and depth. While imaging is indeed pinpoint, there can be a sense of holographic realism from the human voice or acoustic instruments that I don't often find in stereo recordings.
I have a Tivoli table radio and my opinion is that it is carefully voiced to be accurate within the frequency response of the single full range speaker. Frequency extremes are deliberately rolled off, leaving a very clean and natural midband. The single driver is essentially a point source, eliminating the phase issues that sometimes affect multi driver speaker systems. Compared to the Onkyo system, the Tivoli may sound much cleaner, and more accurate within the limits of its reproduction spectrum.
Just my opinion- others may differ.
