Great post, theophile! But all jokes aside, it's pretty simple. Each woman (like each man) looks for different things in speakers. Boils down to individual taste. I know women and men who are satisfied listening to their music on their phones. Some listen through earbuds, others through the device's tiny speakers (ugh!). I only listen to music on my Kindle (portable) when I have NO other choice. My Bose earbuds aren't awful but after listening through the HE-6, the Bose are unsatisfying. My HE-6 is attached to a WyWire Red XLR cable. If anybody on this thread knows how the WyWire Platinum speaker cable effects speaker sound quality I'm interested.
Speakers Women Like
Another discussion asked whether there were any women audiophiles, like males who knit, they exist, but are hard to find. I am interested in "stereo" types (i.e. types of people who like stereo music), but not judgements and I love hearing about what other listeners get out of music.
So my question for the women listeners and readers here is, what speakers do you like, maybe what headphones and what make you scratch your head and go "you’ve got to be kidding me? " Do you think it's about hearing, or culture? Are you all about the big double bass in a Jazz quartet, or the Chinese erhu? What makes you feel at home with audiophiles, what makes you feel your by yourself?
Any other information about how you got there, like whether you play music, or like a certain genre. Please, we’re all ears.

mcanaday94 posts06-25-2016 8:01amI love the British sound-- Harbeth, KEF, Epos, etc. Margot Those are just some of the British sounds I can get googoo over, not excluding amplifiers and anything else made over there :) My girl thoroughly enjoys listening with me. Having similar music interests of course cant hurt. When two have music in common and share similar fondness's for the many different aspects of music its one of the best things to strengthen a bond. I almost made a stereo type, thinking "gloss white" lol my bad. as far as aesthetics go that often gets a pass ;) |
It's great one theofile. I copied-pasted for future laughs:), but still feel that topic itself in general a matter of subject independent of gender. Speakers women like or men? What's difference? My crowd in the store likes music of 80's just like perhaps I am including all styles; my women didn't give a truck about speakers I'm using and I'm sure that there are some men don't care about speakers as long as they work. |
