RE: Ideal frequency response curve

"customers don't buy products that give them "bleeding ears"

Very thoughtful response, Tony. Nice contribution.
But I'm not sure manufacturers don't mind adding a little sizzle to their steak. It's called "detail." I hit the CES and Rocky Mountain audio shows every year, and too many times I don't make it more than three feet into the demo room before I rush right out again. OW! OW! OW!

Perhaps its because there is no blood left in the ears of the younger generations as a result of attending a few rock concerts or from having headphones permanently welded to their skulls. Or maybe they figure that the real buyers of their stuff are old guys (like me? us?) who need a bit of boost in the high freqs or we can't hear them at all. But that's all just speculation.
