Does you wife touch your system?

my wife has no interest in it. It's a good thing too, because if she tried she would quickly become frustrated and irate, and blame me for how hard it is to make it work. Also, I would be hovering over her every move and become irate when she doesn't do it exactly right.

you see, both of us are a little tightly wound . . .

Main system,no. HT/secondary 2-channel system, yes.

Blasphemy!

Yes - she is good with gears (better than me on computers and cameras), but sadly, music never stirs the soul to bring tears to her eyes...

Infact, she thinks I am a little insane for all the repeated hifi purchases.

She mostly turns down the volume, when hifi gods and Mozart is about to grant me a sublime experience...

My wife was an LP Disc Jockey back in the day then became a Promotions Director. While she doesn't use those old school turntable back cueing methods she very good at muting and general LP care.

She also came with a substantial LP collection including a great deal of promotional copy and original British and German versions.

Inclusion makes system upgrades a non issue.
