My wife actually instruced our cleaning lady to not move the speakers. I found out because the cleaning lady came and complained to me. So I asked my wife why she did this, because I had never openly complained about having to move the speakers back in the right place weekly. My wife informed me that the system 'just didn't sound right at all' when the speakers were off. I was greatly surprised, as she makes fun of the hobby, but she claims to hear the difference.
Experiences with your "Better Halves"
MY girlfriend and I recently went to an audio store just to burn some time before dinner with friends. We played some of our salsa and R&B CDs in a musical fidelity (Nuvista amp+ some other MF components) with B&W CDM9 speakers. When the store manager asked for our opinion she stated "the highs are a little rough, separation was superb, imaging was good, the bass was very clear although a bit forward probably because of the room" - and this was all in one breath. Needless to say I was impressed!! She had only listened to my rambles after listening sessions at friends and audio stores. It is apparent that she has very gifted hearing ability even though power ratings, capacitance or impedance matching are the equivalent of words found in a Russian Restaurant menu to her. I am interested in learning about your experiences as couples, this has certainly been quite an awakening to me.
