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.

Expensive? for some this is a definite turn on. Like thinking that he must have lots of loose cash to spend on me.

If they like you after seeing your audio setup, you either have a really good one, or a really bad one.

"looks just like a Telefunken U47".

I couldn't resist

If the speaker is classy in it's appearance some people (women) will notice. I love fine furniture and for me a speaker should look like a piece of fine furniture/art. If I don't like the looks of it I won't concider it, no matter how good it sounds. If a woman doesn't give a rat's behind about fine furniture/art, she probably won't be impressed by the speaker.
I occasionally used to give a co-worker, who I was very attracted to, a ride home. If I talked about my passion for audio, her response would be one of polite interest. One day she discovered a pair of Siltech G6 interconnects in my back seat (honest, they were just there; I, uh... borrowed them from a friend, OK?). I reasonably cautioned her to be careful with them because they were expensive. She bit, eh...I mean she asked how much? First there was disbelief, but as I went into a detailed explanation, her whole disposition changed. Suddenly, she had a million questions about my system. Before we could get to her place, she asked if she could buy me a drink - to repay me for my generosity in driving her home all these times. Prior to this, I was admonished if I missed a light. We shared three glorious weeks together that ended abruptly, of course, at the Audi dealer when I wouldn't make the down payment and co-sign. Oh well.
Phaelon do you still have the interconnects? Or did they lack synergy like your coworker did with you?
