I also hear major resonances from many high end speakers which the reviewers seem to ignore. Even my PMC speakers have horrific resonances. Despite this, they were highly regarded by all the studio engineers.I’d suggest your expectations are not realistic, but then having the opinion cheap ear buds sound better I find incredibly odd. I walk nearly everyday and though my earbuds are not inexpensive, I would never choose them over my 2 channel system. In addition, you state cheap earbuds which raise the question on cables, DAC and amplification. Most reference systems I am familiar with do not have that sort of connection.
Easy solution is to be thankful you enjoy music through such a inexpensive medium and stick with that. However, if you insist on pursuing this hobby your issue may not be speakers.
To be analogous to food, say cheese. If you dislike cheese and continue to post on forums your dismay on why others like this and that cheese seems odd. It seems this post suggests “I like Kraft singles over a cheese made by Wayne Hnitz, who I believe won several categories in cheese making world championships” and suggest everyone, including judges, has unrefined tastebuds. It may not be everyone else...............
