Most home branded speakers are flat to at least 18khz. Redbook is good to 20khz. You need a metal dome or ribbon to get past 22khz cleanly.Teresa and I both have speakers that really get way out to the upper limits of audio reproduction. A decent set of horns or ribbon like technology is what creates a high resolving system.
By the way, some of the very best selling speakers in the world had a response no better than 28-17khz, and even that was a bit bumpy. They are great resolving speakers but not high resolution speakers.
Hopefully we do not flame about frequency response and speakers, there is more to frequency response than the drivers alone. For instance my midfi Kenwood and Pioneer Elite phono sections only resolved to 14khz. They were fun to listen to but the Jolida just wipes them away in comparison.
