Girlfriends and wifes, how do YOU cope?

Yes Dorkwad, it's pretty sweet. Occasionally she might not be in the mood for music so I have a Schiit Lyr headphone amp that serves me well although it rarely gets used.

It really helps that we enjoy the same music. It wasn't always that way though. I was always the rock n roll guy. She's actually the one who introduced me to good jazz and classical. I owe her big time because the experience has been great and has stood the test of time.

Now that the weather is turning we'll spend a lot of time listening to music and cooking. This also seems to be the time of year when we order a lot of new music. Good times for sure.

I hope you can find a way to spark the interest and get your wife down stairs for some good music. Maybe let her pick out the music. Make it a date night. Plan it out in advance and make it special. Women love that.

Thanks Donjr. I need all the help I can get. Hope it eventually works. You'd think she'd get tired of watching TV.

I was thinking that if you were with the "right" girl for you ,this all wouldn't be a problem but a shared "sound" relationship.

When recently discussing a rather expensive hifi purchase with my wife, she said, "what are you waiting for? Won't you be losing your hearing soon?" (i'm 53).

I'm coping very well today on my birthday. My wife bought me a Nordost Red Dawn LS XLR cable as a gift. I just plugged her in, now it's off to breakfast and then come home for some music. My best pal Bob from the Analog Shop in Victor NY even wrapped it for her. It's good to have a great brick and mortar down the road and a wife who likes to keep her man happy after all these years. I'm actually starting to wonder how SHE copes.
