I called this thread to my girlfriend's attention. Want to comment I asked? "No". So I will speak for her. Put words into her mouth. I am allowed to do this with Audio. She doesn't care.
I have met "Audiophile" women. Walk the walk, talk the talk type of Audiophiles. Knew equipment, manufactures, specs... 12ax7, 6550 made sense to them. Very very few.
My girlfriend loves music. She CAN nitpick sound better than I. Does not know that terminology. But notices, Why does ______ sounds so and so? Glory hallelujah she noticed amongst other things the string bass sounded better than the old speakers. Ultimately does not care. Most women don't care about the "hobby". She/they are more about what they look like. Organization. Keep the speakers out of her way. Little apartment, I can appreciate that one. She's not one to sit and concentrate on the presentation. She's doing other things while the music plays. Most of the time I do the same. It's playing right now while I'm typing this. While very few women do indulge in audio like we do. Most don't care. Men and Women. What come out of their smart phones is just fine.
