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

I know female audiophile exist. Met them years ago at the winter and summer CES shows.  1970's, 80's.  And while visiting audio salons on America.

I wanted my girlfriend to respond but she gave me the "don't wanna" look.
I know for a fact that she knows what sounds good to her.  And can pickup changes and aspects in my system that I overlook.  Worst, when she hears something different she goes and looks (inventory?) at my equipment.  Could mean I spent money.  She is one to go to shows or shops.  Which are non existent here in Kona.  And expensive to go do.  She's much into talking technicals.  Sitting, listening, evaluating, tweeking, trying this 'n that... No.    
Can she hear mid range clarity?  Bass extension or definition?  Top end extension? Air?  Spaciousness?   Width, depth, detailed of image? Ambience?  Bad recording?  YES.  She may not know what it's called.  But she hears it.  Does she complain or comment about them.  No.  She doesn't really care.  Unless I spent a lot of money.

Oooo.  A thought just came to mind.  Open a high end salon in like Macy's or Nordstrom.
My wife loves music and prefers it reproduced properly. She's a allowed four listening rooms and a recording studio. One is a Michael Greene turnable room. I'm very fortunate for this and other reasons.
Corrections.  She is NOT one to go to shows or shops.  She is NOT into talking technicals.
Yep. And Jasmine’s husband.

One birthday she gave me a higher end Koetsu. Another a cost-no-object DIY air bearing TT. Two years ago, a purpose made listening room. (Our first attempt was only good enough for a HT.)
