Are audiophile speakers turn on for single women?

I recently purchased a pair of speakers that I showed to a non-audiophile female friend of mine. She said they looked beautiful and asked how much they cost. When I told her, her jaw dropped. She then asked if I was using them to pick up hot chicks. Hmm...I told her the only people who get turned on by my audiophile speakers are balding middle-aged men. She had a laugh, but I wondered if anyone tried to impress a girl with his stereo system. High end is a male dominated hobby like sports cars. So have you found a woman who was turned on by your system. I have had no such look. I just get blank stares when I talk about my hobby to women.

It depends on the woman. If you play the right music, she'll pay attention to you. Which is what you want anyway, right? But don't expect her to appreciate your audio investment.

Just a grammatic question...since when did we develop as an English speaking country, this confusion with the words, THAN and THEN?

Example of correct usage.
"He is older THAN she."

Incorrect usage.
" He is older THEN she."

Is this difficult? Why do I see it not only here, but in some nationally/or at least locally produced ads?

Show of hands here...how many of you did NOT know this?
I only point it out as I noticed it on this particular thread.

Lrsky, They sound the same and have the same amount of letters making choice very difficult - otherwise always choose a shorter one. For instance write:

nun instead of noun or none
nose instead of knows
by instead of buy or bye
be instead of bee
site instead of sight or cite
our instead of hour
etc.

"Maid in USA" is improper since "maid" and "made" have the same amount of letters.

It is simple to remember and saves a lot of paper.

Actually, Yes! During the 80es most popular dance music was
Italo dance music. At that time I used to work for national
arline as a mechanic so I could afford to buy not the HI End
electronics but the decent one. I remember when I purchased
Nakamichi Dragon deck and Pioneer S-1010 speakers. So My
friend was in the record business so I always had a brand new
hits. My neighbor was a GORGEOUS Flight Attendant who loved
the Dance music. One day I played music louder than usual so
she came up and I started apologizing for playing music loud. She actually came to ask if I can make a copy for her.
O, She loved the speakers and electronics, she even learned
how to calibrate the tapes on Nakamichi. We had many nice
days until she got married. I think she got married because
I sold Dragon and purchased CR-7E (calibrating it's easier).
