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.

I'd say it depends on what you have and how you talk about it. Reserved presentation of,as an example, Studer reel to reel and LAMM amps might not hurt. Speakers would probably never impress, they always look ugly.
Women are different you know, especially married ones..

Elizabeth, I fail to understand why you didn't want to post and why you decided to comply to the request.
Anyway, as a friendly advice, get rid of that Cardas in you system, and things may become a little better.

I agree. A woman wants to be a diamond herself.
Gifts like that are often perceived as bribe or/and sign of stupidity, or as an insult.
If a man can talk about his stereo and at the same time be with the woman - it's all right.
Did I answer your question?

Classy guy with a boom box is a contradiction in terms.
Krell/Wilson don't look or sound too bad - there might be a chance. 6 digits..you meant 5 plus 1 ?

Why don't you guys stop it about cats and dogs? We are talking here about women and diamonds.
You could argue the point of course that women are animals too, but that would be a totally different discussion.
