Women who enjoy quality speakers
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. |
My wife has never bought audio equipment. I brought it into our marriage, the 2nd for both of us. But she had some 1960s LPs! (That sweetened the deal! LOL!) So after setting up our new home, I had approval to set up the audio equipment. It was when I played her LPs that she became an enthusiastic listener. She had never heard her old records sound like this. Otis Reading, Supremes, Cream, CCR, etc. Now, when we’re sitting in the LR, and she turns off the TV, gives me “the look”, I know I’m getting “lucky” tonight!!! Yup! Time to spin some LPs!! |
Most men don't care about quality audio either, so let's say, most people. They like "music" and so long as it's what they like, they aren't concerned about the sound quality, just the song. I believe people are generally average in tastes and perception, but much of this is learned behavior by conformity. Everything is "ok" and therefore is sufficient. Some percentage will develop deeper interest in something, food, beer, cars, music, film, books, etc. and become more discriminating in their thing of choice. But societal norms and pressures skew a lot hence cars are a "guy" thing and sewing is a "girl" thing. People end up letting those norms dictate their lives consciously or not, unfortunately. Others follow their hearts regardless, man or woman and pursue happiness.I Moral of the story, open your mind to everything and enjoy what you like, not what society says or thinks you should. |
