One needs to consider the whole system, not just a single factor. There
are some simple, non-permanent, and relatively cost effective things you
can do to help a room. Knock out some first order reflections and trap
some bass. A couple hanging absorptive panels and a couple hanging
broadband traps is all it takes. It may not be great, but it will be a
great improvement. Getting better speakers without getting a better room
is less effective than you'd hope.

Yeah, but it still stands that crappy speakers will sound crappy in any
given room.

Certainly true. If the speakers really suck, they're the weak link. As
they get better, the room starts to become the weaker link. But yes, you
need to get to a certain minimum level of quality before there's any
point. Luckily, reasonable speakers are available at reasonable prices.
