My take is that there are so many speakers because there are so many different sizes and shapes of rooms and so many different listening tastes.
So yes, there are some speakers that work better with specific types of music, but moreso there are speakers that work better with different room sizes and configurations, the room actually being an extension of the speaker as far as low frequencies are concerned, and there are speakers that work better with different amplifier configurations.
