The audio industry still doesn't make sense to me...

So, the post above is meant for YOU people out there who are buying speakers. Do you run bookshelf speakers and subwoofers? Am I alone in thinking the way I do? Would YOU buy a speaker with less bass, more midrange performance, and hopefully more efficiency? Or would this just not work well? Why or why not?

Thanks!

Edit: Again, I want to stress that I am not AGAINST full-range bookshelf speakers. They certainly have their place and a market. I'm just wondering why there doesn't seem to be a market for more bookshelf speakers like the CBMs that are limited in bass extension but focus more on midrange and maintaining high sensitivity (and also using RAAL and more "upscale" midwoofers). Where are you people? Am I alone?
