Na, listen to e/g David Crosby's "What's Broken". On a (close to) perfect stereo it is full, overly so, of 'detail' in every frequency range. Colorful and all, again in every frequency range. Packed with cues for this and that, caleidoscopic. But, when auditioned over more mediocre equipment, it is just a w(h)iney lullaby of no further essence (hope I didn't insult anybody).…of the time.
If you had measured those general purpose speakers you would see that they were not good. LS3/5A was a superior speaker of its time within its design constraints.
Some, as me, don't fall for exceptional studio tech. The LS3/5 helps with that
