Default Do females like your subwoofer?

Generally speaking, do women drivers/passengers prefer less bass while listening to audio?

I don't think it is a matter of men vs. women rather audio enthusiasts vs. non.
My wife didn't say anything when I put in components up front vs. base stock (which was a HUGE difference) but finally noticed while I am waiting for my new amp and we are listening to only the rear stock speakers that they sound like crap!
I'm sure that when I get the sub installed she could notice but won't understand why or think that it matters. I don't think it has anything to do with her being a woman

Good luck getting any serious responses now!
Hope this wasn't an important question.

I don't think you can generalize stuff like this. I remember a girl I worked with that was trying to talk her husband into buying very expensive home stereo equipment they couldn't afford. They both went in and listened to some Carver stuff and loved it then she was the one trying to find a way to afford it.
Just met a new co-worker recently that had to talk her husband into getting a Subaru STI and make sure it was a manual

My hatchback was pushing nearly 5000 watts with 6 12's in the back with the back seats taken out. Girls used to love riding in that car and the funniest thing I ever heard from my ex was how ironic it was for her to be in a vibrator..lol since the car was a pontiac vibe.

Hard to generalize.... but I will tell you this, all the females who have ever been in the Z disregard anything in it and just gawk over the Z itself.

I agree with TChachas...doesn't matter what you put in the Z, you're gonna get it either way...it sucks (if you dont have it)
