I think part of the headphone craze is that headphones are a little more controlled than speakers are. In other words, when we listen to speakers we are really listening to the speakers AND the room they are in. Another thing is that Beats by Dre made people care about how they listen to music, and now we have $700 Beyerdynamic wireless headphones. Also, no one wants to take a B&W 800 series tower speaker with them on the bus (as an example). Portable music is better with headphones.
tl;dr -- headphones are more versatile than speakers
