Apologies if I have caused any offense - I made a rather crude joke thoughtlessly. Without wishing to generalise (while clearly doing so), I think it is fair to say that most audiophiles are men, and most computer geeks are men. Guys seem to be more prone to these diseases. Since the SB3 is an audiophile geek toy, I would be surprised if their customer base were not overwhelmingly male. So occasional laddishness is probably inevitable on the user forum. But this thread is valid: it's important to many of us that our other halves share our interests. If we can explain what our OHs like and dislike about the experience, it may help others to gain that acceptance. While perhaps the thread could have been titled differently, it does cover important ground.
