High end Audio for ladies? Check this out

"Judging from the appearance/social skills/personal grooming of the men (especially in the SET/horn crowd) - no need to worry about having too many women hanging around."

Ouch!

I may have to think twice about adding a pair of horn loaded speaks to my system!

Luckily, so far, I am SET/horn-free.

Does that explain the desirability of buying really huge horns? Are we compensating for something here?? Sorry, I couldn't resist.

hi pookie10:

is it possible that your experiences have not been representative of audio professionals, but rather represent a minority of audio professionals ? perhaps you might consider them audio rednecks.

there are intolerant people in all professions, but they are not the majority.
i am not doubting the veracity of your anecdotal observations. however, most business persons are motivated by self preservation, i.e., generating a profit from their endeavors. thus it is counterproductive to antagonize a customer and not make a sale.

Mrtennis - Here's a thread that suggests you are wrong about audio dealers.
