Dude, relax. Where did I state that one should buy "faulty cheap equipment."?
But when you say that you "adjust to your liking" you are basically saying the same thing I stated earlier: "to obtain the sound I personally enjoy, and that will be different for each of us." But you still have no idea if after "adjusting to your liking" you are hearing exactly what the artist intended or not. That was my only point.

Yes I was talking headphones in all my threads but to the contrary it's harder or just as hard to get the headphones or plugs into a flat response vs a speaker.
The headphones or IEMs are a closed system (assuming you get a proper seal against your ear canal which is not always easy), unaffected by the room, its layout, sound reflections, etc., and therefore such environment is easier to control and design for, IMO.
