Lie you told your wife to buy equipment?

Oh wow great thread! I wish I had started it... a typical scenario in our house goes like this...
Wife: "ah, what was that diesel truck sound I heard from what seemed like the driveway just now?"
me: "ah, I didn't hear nothin"
wife, a couple of days later: "hey is that a different box on your audio rack downstairs? I don't remember seeing that box before!"
me: "oh that? nah I've had that for a while"
wife: "year right! how much did THIS ONE cost?"
me: "what are you talking about?"

"Dont ask, don't tell" works in my house.

No, not at all, helps me get the best prices.
Infact, she is always happy for me and willing to help me carry up my heavy boxes, dust off my equipment and rack, wipe off finger prints, climb up a ladder to wipe off dust on top of my speakers, and unpack new purchases. Selects furniture, carpets, dressings etc for my listening room.
Insist I install a plasma between my planars, thinks that will look sweet.

Honey, it's the same amp I've always had, I swear!

The ARC CD 3 looks just like the ARC CD 3 SE, which looks just like the ARC CD 7 - hope this helps.
