I would not say my wife minds too much, but I wouldn't say that she enjoys it either. If pushed, she will admit that my system sounds better than her radio, however, it's not nearly worth the price paid in her opinion. She thinks spending mega-K's on an audio system that sounds slightly better than a $200 boombox is just ridiculous......I can't really say that she is wrong. We have bigger disagreements with musical tastes....she's not fond of mine, and I feel the same way about hers.
I know folks who spend millions of dollars on cars, boats, travel, etc, which never made sense to me, so I can understand how one does not comprehend how someone can spend seemingly excessive money on an obssession. There are many obssessions out there that claim a lot of money, audio gear, home theater, cars, boats, women, golf, travel, etc, etc. Each individual person has different values of what they are willing to spend on one specific obsession. Some are fortunate enough to be able to spend excessively on ALL obssessions in life......sigh.
