That's the other part of hi-fi. I have met VERY few female "audiophiles." I don't mean women with good hearing. I mean women that are OCD about snake oil and fiddly tweaks that do nothing except maybe induce a placebo effect. It's great to have a non-obsessed (objective) 2nd opinion that's valid. Too often another guy will say "Man, those Mpingo pucks, cable elevators and cryo treated Ic's didn't change a thing..." and an argument ensues.
