Minimum standards within the High end speaker industry

I believe that there must be minimum standards within the speaker industry to prevent charlatans from gaining access to the marketplace. We must ensure that the industry is reputable and remains that way. We must protect consumers from speakers that masquerade as ultra high end designs when in fact they are of inferior quality.
Inferior quality speakers will still be allowed to be sold under the Kenjit mandate however they will need to be explicitly classified as such.

We currently do not have ANY standards let alone minimum standards and as a consequence the speaker industry has already been reduced to a hodgepodge of wildly varying speaker designs some of which are highly questionable or even downright fraudulent.

There can be no question that the industry requires minimum standards. I am not here to state what those standards should be but there needs to be a discussion about it. 

We need to start weeding out all those inferior speakers on the marketplace as they cannot possibly all be that different from one another. We must take action to ''Make high end speakers, great again!'' (TM pending)

You are so right. Lets stop buying any speaker that is priced over $1000 or maybe $2500 hell I don’t know you pick a figure. Lets only buy speakers with paper cone drivers, made of cheap wood that is no more than 3/8" thickness with those cheap plastic push in binding posts. For get all the measurements because the equipment is inferior as well.
In fact all speakers should be sold for 10 to 15 percent about costs to keep things on the same playing field. We you there when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor! Who is with me?
