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.

I think what we have here, are some lonely(no offense and it is not a general statement):o) audiophiles who have spent big $$ in Audio gear (much of the high priced gear reviewed in Abs. Sound and Stereophile)and have made that their priority - rather then going on a vacation to a resort or cruise they use that $$ for the next speaker cable upgrade. Then wonder damn I wonder if that MIT or Tranparent filter Box would look cool hanging next to my Magico Mini's and hope that when they do get that girl home
She'll say what is that - it is so cool.
Audiophile responds by saying - cool huh, speakers cost 22K and cable and cool box 8K. Hey lets go out to dinner - but lets take your car cause my 20 year old SAAB with 200K miles on it does not have the AC working and has a loud klang sound when going up to speed. Do you prefer TGI Fridays or Chili's ?

Sorry :o)I just had to. Much had to do with the guy who wrote into Abs. sound on priorities for an audiophile.
Play some Frank Sinatra or Michael Buble and they might feel more inclined to cuddle but it is the MUSIC which matters.

Single woman like male drummers and male lead singers and lead guitar most.

It is the skill, athleticism and charm of an entertaining man that a single woman will go for - not a nerd with a big speaker.

Agree.

I think my my OHM F-5s are very rugged and manly, at least as speakers go.

They have yet to impress my wife or any other female that I am aware of yet though...
my wife of 6 months & counting......

loves her 73in mits but she wants to move that to our bedroom & get a 84in mits. She was a little upset when they released the 84 a few months after she purchased the 73.

likes my infinity kappa speakers more then her boston acoustic speakers..... but we are using the 4 parasound amps she had. We are both on the fence with the integra 9.8 pre/pro I purchased. She's always been a yamaha fan & I am a denon fan but I wanted a pre/pro

Need to upgrade her subs, they are 8in mirage sub's which do not do much. Need something big for HT

She doesn't like my harley (it's boring but I got a amazing deal on it & do not like it much either), wants me to get a hyabusa.... which I hate. I ended up getting a buell (always wanted a R1 yamaha) but what I really want is a ducati which she says are to expensive to maintain.... which I agree with :)
Yes, woman but not all will look at them and think how many shoes they can purchase for the same price.
