Provided that there are no problems at that frequency range, when you do NOT use a HPF, the track is perceived as "bigger", "fuller", "enter your own non technical term here"...
Combined with this excellent post by Greg Reierson:

For a frequency response range to be useful you need to know how the upper and lower boundaries are defined. If the speaker is rated 65Hz to 15kHz plus or minus 3 dB it will still have output above 15k and below 65Hz. How steeply it rolls off depends on the design of the speaker but there will probably be quite a lot at 60Hz, less as 50Hz, less at 40Hz, (ignoring a lot of things that can happen as a result of cabinet / crossover design).
If you put a HFP at 60Hz you will affect the audio above 65Hz as well.

I believe this post:
may not be relevant anymore, although appreciated.
So, in my humble opinion, the range or quality of the listener's speakers do not have a lot to do, with our (the MEs') choice of whether to use a HPF or a LPF or any other type of filter.
