Women who enjoy quality speakers

I have never seen a lot of other women enthousiastic about quality sound and music. Are there any in this group? Do your wifes experience the same as i did?

My mother in law became something of an ally to my audiophilia some time ago when I was demoing speakrs. She has acute hearing and developed a genuine interest in sound reproduction.,We’ve compared notes on equipment ever since and demo’d together numerous devices through the years!
My wife however is only interested in the music even though she discerns sonic differences very easily and quickly. Proof of the pudding -- a silver foil speaker cable I tried out last week where she spontaneously remarked that the sound had improved, without being aware that anything had changed in the system

Jasmine,
I suspect many men on this site are a bit jealous right now. I think women are very capable of discerning good sound, perhaps even better than their male counterparts. What I don’t understand is why seemingly fewer woman make it a priority to want to take the time and sit down and do any substantial listening. I can recall only one time where my wife asked to listen to a Hamilton CD--she sat in the sweet spot and loved it. She said it sounded better than the live production she heard in Chicago! But she hasn’t been back since. Just don’t get it.

We are creatures of passion. It is the type of music that makes all of us alike, not that sets us apart...Understand the person is to understand the music that person loves.. Not what you think they should like!!

A true partnership is based on no ones leads, but I will always follow and with great respect. My FIL taught me that... You show your respect by understanding and LISTENING, with your eyes....He use to say... Smartest person I ever knew, and the most loved..
Man could he Cha Cha Cha... A klipsch guy too, loved the horns...Corner horns... and valve amps... We have all his 78 collection... Wonderfully preserved..

Regards and with GREAT respect... Scotty

Not wanting to preempt the OP's response to your 'Perplexity' as to why women - in general - do not take the time to sit down to listen to a piece/pieces of music *at home*. 

It is a question of - conditioning - VERY POWERFUL CONDITIONING, as a home-maker, just not to sit about in leasure in ones house(hold) while there are *things* to do, we're learned and trained to do. 

This internalised training makes one most uncomfortable 'wasting time', as other household related things, ALWAYS will feel like to have a far higher priority. 

Being taken out to the opera, theater, or some other out of house venue will break this sort of 'spell' - which often is close to a self admitted kind of OCD behaviour. 

Even for a woman, after the end of a relationship, it is quite difficult to readjust and drop these 'old' habits. 

It's literally like learning how 'watching paint dry' - and believe me, THAT is seriously difficult, once you were trained, and to some degree supported by instinct (nest making), to change. 

I'm speaking from personal experience,

So much of high end audio is designed to exploit typically masculine traits. Bigger, better, faster, more. Endless dissatisfaction. Endless fretting over what we might be missing and what some other dude says about our stuff. Sure, women are susceptible to these sorts of things too, but typically not so much when it is technical.

My wife rarely listens to my main system. She does not know how to work it even though it is no more complicated than firing up the space shuttle.

She listens to the Sonos speakers I have placed around the house.

But, I recently inherited a pair of Aerial Acoustics 6T towers and she allowed them in our formal living room. For simplicity and minimal impact on the room decor I have them connected to the new Sonos Amp.

Lately, when I come home from work she is in the living room listening to the 6Ts whereas she rarely used that room before. No matter what anyone might suspect, the 6Ts sound lovely and compelling even with a Sonos Amp. She hears that.

And since there is little to no technical crap to deal with or look at, she is drawn to them and enjoys them.

So of course women can and do appreciate SQ. I think they are just less susceptible to falling for the BS that we men insert between the music and our ears.
