Wife/girlfriend or audio: if you had to chose?

Say your wife or girlfriend (no kid involved) asked you to drop your passion for audio, sell your system and settle for a Bose Wave box - because she thinks that your hobby is a barely grown-up kid toy story that needs to stop (either invasive or expensive or just ridiculous to her friends and family).
What do you do? keep wife/girlfriend or your gear?
Just respond: Audio or Wife and in brackets years of relationship...

Audio (21)!

Wife/5.

The music and sounds she makes can not compare to my audio system. Organic with a deep sound stage. Imaging to die for.

audio(45..had a stereo at 7) wife(26)...seriously though, girls just don't dig the three stooges and procol harum. never did and never will. an audio budget(read allowance) is suggested for those whose marriage is a real partnership.....i don't think a budget for a girlfriend too will work.

Audio(6).My girlfriend has an unnatural resonance/peak in her voice that results in extreme coloration and non euphonic distortion.I measured her THD at about 60 percent! I can only listen to her for about 5 minutes, music for hours.
