yep - since the job of a recording engineer is to make a recording sound good on a wide range of speakers, and my impression is that the main difference between speaker enclosures is the frequency curve, I've pictured the mastering process as a a sort of "averaging" or "balancing" of the recording so that it's in the "sweet spot" of all these different frequency curves. Is that a somewhat accurate statement?

If so, then by disregarding commercial appeal is it possible to get a pristine, killer reproduction of a recording if we custom-master the recording for a specific set of speakers?

Not meaning to derail the thread, just curious.
