At least you won't have to worry that when you die, your wife will sell your stereo gear for what you told her you paid for it.

I was waiting for the part where the woman shot the men because she did not like their speakers.

 @megabyte ... flipping hilarious! 

"Word has it he and his wife reconciled and he bought a Bose soundbar."

LMAO great sense of humor.

Yamaha NS-5000. Made by a piano company. You will need more power than the Luxman though, at least 400 watts at 8 ohms. All the drivers are the same material for unmatched tonal accuracy. 

I’m curious about this one.  I’ve read reviews that stated that those who have disliked Martin Logan conventional speakers should hear the XL f-200, about $5500 for the pair:

My Girlfriend/Partner has vintage floor standing JBLs. I'll NEVER leave her! 

Another click bait post 

@jetter 

Great idea! Thanks to everyone who responded. I will try placement first, as they were not set up that well. Adding another sub is also great as even if I do buy new speakers, the subs won't go to waste.

Not sure why folks think I was kidding. 

OP

OP here - lots of good advice - both on audio and on divorce..... I cannot believe this question got such a huge response! Seems I hit a nerve.

Nah, we just have nothing better to do. 

Which Luxman do you have? 

I have the Luxman 590 - love it! I didn't want to mess with tubes and class A brings me a nice warm/rich sound. Now if I can only find a woman like that.....

What's your budget?

Very neutral/natural sound, can listen for long sessions. But I don't get a very good image, and it seems a little too laid back.

I bet if you sharpen your pencil....you'll wish to go back to previous setup.

yes, more than a few misogynistic responses here, not the place for advice on mother's day gift ideas...
