Re: Hi Fi Fetishism

Not one in 50 are female on this site. A lot of women are very interested in how a speaker looks in a room, in particular its decor attributes not the sound. That is, smaller, easily-hidden speakers are preferable to larger speakers that tend to stick out in a room decor. Generally the vintage speakers that fascinate the guys the most tend to dominate the room as well and appearance is secondary to sound quality.

The solution, of course, is guys have out-of-the way places in the basement for their vintage sound systems, and the sound system in the formal areas, if present at all, will be something from B0$e or similar.

When a woman enters this room with a serious interest in high fidelity sound, the guys are all over her, and will do anything, or at least practically anything for her. If she expresses a sincere interest in vintage components and how they sound, I think they used to call that a wet dream when I was about 16.

In the latter case make a marriage proposal quickly or as this is clearly your one true love and you likely will never meet another.
