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

My wife has recently became interested. Purchased a NAIM Unity Atom and a pair of Klipsch LaScalas
@OP,
Great Post!
I mean it.

As a kid from the Projects, I wasn't exposed to the finer things in life.
Going to an Ivy League college exposed me to things I could not afford, but still lusted for. My parents chastised me for being so gullible.
After college, working for the 1% exposed me to even more things I never knew or dreamed of. 

I would say your your former husband did much the same for you.
Let's just say life has a strange way of guiding us.
-And, guiding us to be better than we ever thought we could be, if we give it a chance. I think your current husband should consider himself blessed.

I think women are programmed to multitask — something I, and I suspect most men, struggle with — so it’s probably harder for them to just sit and focus on one thing.  This may also explain why they’re such awesome drivers.  Heh heh. 
When it comes to speakers, one could do much worse than Bang & Olufsen Beolab line.
Thanks for posting djasmine. Reading your post and most of the responses brought some joy to my life today. Especially oldhvymec, which also brought good tears.

My wife of 22+ years, who has better ears than I, enjoys the hell out of our audio journey, and has contributed greatly to our combined audiophile enjoyment.
