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.

In 99% of single women it is highly unlikely. But there's that 1% of women that you find in male dominated endeavors. Finding a woman from that 1% is like finding a needle in a haystack!
Being a divorced 45 year old man for the last 10 years, I can say YES. I have not had a woman over that didnt like my set up or choice of music. Music is part of my life and I walk it like I talk it...
For me, not by the equipment per se, but my condensed story is the first time she came over to my house, we watched a movie/hung out/etc. Then I played some stuff for her and she was impressed by the sound (Classe/B&W setup at the time). Then I proceeded to sing (attempt to sing) Visions of Johanna off Blonde on Blonde to her. We've now been married for 5 yrs and just had a little baby girl, so hey it can work!!!!!!
No they are a turn off. Women will pretend to be interested in what you enjoy if they truly like you but trust me when they move in your systems on the chopping block. Rare is the women who enjoys equipment or loves you enough to let you enjoy hobbies. I for one lucked out I have giant horns all about the house my wife hardly gives me any grief.
No, they are a turnoff. Why? Well any gal will quickly realize that the person is crazy to spend that kind of money. She will know from the get go that she will always be competing with 'his stereo', leaving her unable to stock a closet with many pairs of $300 shoes. Hey, can't live without those shoes.
