Have you ever deceived your wife-audio purchase

This could lead to a hysterical thread. How many audiophiles have come home with an expensive amp/preamp/and told their wife they bought it for practically nothing? Only to have paid 3-4K they had in their private stash? How many audiophiles have secretly installed a new "toy" in their audio system thinking their wife wouldn't notice. My old girlfriend thought anything beyond a boombox was excessive. Whenever I would upgrade my system,I would come up with some far fetched tale(lie) Would love to hear your story.......

Divorce is a lot more expensive than stereo equipment.

Bryanhod, that's why I'm still married. Some stay together for the children, I stay for the stereo equipment. LOL.

I've undertaken at least a dozen covert operations, since entering into this hobby, that would make a Navy Seal proud. Wife "Is that a new stereo thingy?" Me "Nah honey I've had that for awhile now." or "Why yes it is dear! I traded a guy straight up for it". Strength and honor!

I think we need to get a "tax" credit to stay married AND buy stereo equipment. We help the economy and raise great kids. I think we need to get a lobbiest working on our behalf.

I am always up front and tell her. HOWEVER - she usually responds with "well, you know how much money you make".
Duhh - clearly I don't. If I did, I wouldn't be spending it like I do.
