Best audiophile earwax removal system?
If you have a lot of earwax, you need to be taking fish oils capsules (orally).  
Can a great system make a mediocre recording sound good?
Find someone with some omnidirectional speakers e.g. ohm, or open baffles or wide dispersion box speakers take a listen and decide for yourself.  You will get a different experience than the typical box speaker.

whitestix Two that come to mind are the above-mentioned Linkwitz LXmini's (where the sweet spot exists pretty much everywhere in the room)"   This  
Are there speakers that disappear regardless of the recording?
