Do female audiophiles exist

Regarding your last question, I've read message boards where audiophiles tout the recording quality over the music. 

I I think you have both, those that value music over recording quality and vice versa..

In my collection I've got some down right awful recordings, and many more that are just mediocre.  But I love music and dig past all that to embrace the music.  When I listen to well recorded music of course I'm in music heaven, but those who aren't pure music lovers are missing out on a LOT!  Of course I grew up in the transistor radio era, too.  Might have a little to do with it.

@mewsickbuff You would think so, but I've run into a few guys who can't even listen to a whole song. All they want to do is play test tracks for 30 seconds and A/B test until the cows come home. The best way to shut them up is to ask them what new albums they are enjoying lately! Cheers,

Too soon? I literally just found this forum. I'm calling myself an audiophile-in-training - and female. I've always had the pleasure of enjoying excellent audio because my father had it set up. that was years ago - now I'm starting my on my own, looking to recreate the goodness. Hope to learn a lot from you all! 

Probably but nobody ever called them that.  🤔
