Why all or most audiophiles are men?

@larry5729, great post,

"If people listened to music there would be a lot less shootings."

The cathartic power of music is grossly underestimated.


"I wonder at times if people are allergic to music."  

We live in a busy restless world where music is all too often a accessory
(preferably portable) and not something to enjoy in it's own right. 


"I have seen entertainment furniture selling for well over $5,000 with a wide screen TV with no surround speakers. They are just listening to their TV speakers............really!"

Even those who aren't seem to prefer the look of soundbars and soundbases to loudspeakers (floor or stand mounted).
Perhaps they don't know that the TVs headphone out can be plugged straight into an amp via 3.5/RCA cable without the need for any separate DVD/amp cables etc?

Ha, I can think of many women who are shopaholics. Women aren't real big on gadgets, though.  

Larry, enjoyed your post. 
After I bought Sony stereo from Montgomery Ward, it took two months for my wife starting to talk to me again. Since she's gone to eternity, I am free whatever I want to buy. But I dearly miss her though. 

Women enjoy music as much as men do.
Audio Clubs do have a negative reaction
with women. Why? Audio men are not the 
best dressers or the best talkers (on non audio topics)
and most of all are not a terribly attractive lot overall.
Is that unfair ? If so grab a mirror.

Do you have something against aging out of shape overweight bald men? Only joking.
