With my wife and me it all began in 1968. She had a Lear 8 track stereo in her Chevrolet which sounded worlds better than the squawky AM radio in my old beater. That started the two of us on a search for better and better sound which continues to this day, more than half a century later. We have listened to my DIY speakers for decades. When I told my wife I wanted to build a pair of fully horn loaded speakers for our den that would include a pair of 18 cu.ft. folded corner horns plus midrange and tweeter horns out in the room she not only approved but also spent many hours helping me build them. We both love listening to them.
Women who enjoy quality speakers
In my former marriage i was introduced to high end audio by my husband.
At the time the endless visits to highend shows , meetings and shops annoyed me. Tech talk and not very female friendly designs came and went in my living room.
And although i couldnt get used to all of the above, one thing i learned , how to listen.
Now years further , in my second marriage quality audio wasnt a very well know topic of my husband working in tech. Mediocre cheaper hifi dominated the house, which looked even worse and sounded even a lot worse.
When we talked about new speakers and bang and olufsen was mentioned i knew i had to educate him , to let him know whats on the market and how things can sound.
The revelation ended in buying avalon speakers and simular quality equipement and cables.
Now its up and running i really enjoy music again!
Who would have thought that!
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?
Wishing you all a very musical festive season,
A very happy wife,
Jasmine
