For those who aren't aware of this psychological disorder, it's called Audio Fundamentalism. The Audio Fundamentalist believes a speaker must be built exactly a certain way of it will sound like shit. The most common varieties are open back fundamentalists and full range single drive fundamentalists, followed by horn fundamentalists. There are also a few lots-of-small-subwoofers-distributed-randomly-around-the-room fundamentalists. Their beliefs are based entirely on faith in the written word, because they know nothing about science.

This should not be confused with the people who actually build and sell the above types of speakers. They are almost entirely professionals who actually understand speaker design and have chosen to specialize in a certain type of speaker, but they do not deny the qualities of the types of speakers they don't offer.
