Are audiophile speakers turn on for single women?


I recently purchased a pair of speakers that I showed to a non-audiophile female friend of mine. She said they looked beautiful and asked how much they cost. When I told her, her jaw dropped. She then asked if I was using them to pick up hot chicks. Hmm...I told her the only people who get turned on by my audiophile speakers are balding middle-aged men. She had a laugh, but I wondered if anyone tried to impress a girl with his stereo system. High end is a male dominated hobby like sports cars. So have you found a woman who was turned on by your system. I have had no such look. I just get blank stares when I talk about my hobby to women.

Dream on, the only reaction you get from women is a sad, pitying shake of the head.

There was a nice little article in HiFi+ some years ago, by a partner of one of the reviewers. It said a recent survey had shown that women find HiFi fascinating and are very interested in Audiophiles, who obviously think that men have a sensitive, artistic side, if they like music. It ended with" Sorry guys, I was only kidding"

So if a new girlfriend shows an interest in your equipment(HiFi), she is lying
