Wife approval factor?

Why do the wives have to let any of you do anything?

My wife is very accepting of all the equipment that comes rolling through here. Of course, I often suspect that's because She's cheating on me with the UPS guy. That's okay as long as the equipment keeps rolling in:)

My spouse not only approves, she participates! She isn't as obsessive about audio as I am, but at least we share that common interest.

We listen together frequently. We plan future upgrades together. We discuss equipment, acoustics, tweaks and music in general. Needless to day, I generally get no grief for eyeballing a new piece for the trophy room.

The caveat now becomes which piece? The one she wants or the one I want?

No free lunch I guess...

A very serious girlfriend of 3 years walked out on me and never came back and asked / told me not to contact her again after I purchased about $3,000 worth of Acoustic Science room treatment stuff. Hey, I needed some help moving the ''tubes'' into their correct position.....best of all, it was MY house !!!!This was a situation that a women just did not understand this hobby and best of all, she really wasn't into music..... My friends tried to tell me....so back in the market for a new one. Hey, is there a site for that like Audiogon ?

You guys obviously do not fancy Maggies, or other "ugly room dividers".
