Have you ever deceived your wife-audio purchase


This could lead to a hysterical thread. How many audiophiles have come home with an expensive amp/preamp/and told their wife they bought it for practically nothing? Only to have paid 3-4K they had in their private stash? How many audiophiles have secretly installed a new "toy" in their audio system thinking their wife wouldn't notice. My old girlfriend thought anything beyond a boombox was excessive. Whenever I would upgrade my system,I would come up with some far fetched tale(lie) Would love to hear your story.......

Absolutely not. I'm far too rich, famous and extremely sexy to bother with such matters.
Hi Bruce:

I decided to go with the Endangered Species MkIV (nucular powered, but of course:-).

Your memory really is slipping old boy as I have my face lifted every Wednesday. Thursday would be super though.

Chow for now.
Albert:

I have since upgraded to a complete Kraco 8 track system (Bruce has my old Bose setup:-).
I recently picked up some cat toys (little balls with a bunch of rubber tentacles sticking out of them) that my wife assumed were for the new kitten to play with.

The truth of the matter is that I intend on tacking them to the inside corners of our soon to be installed single driver speaker cabinets.

Although I am not making audio purchases @ the current time (due to budget constraints) money had nothing to do with the deception (they were cheap). I just did not want her telling our friends/guests that I had placed cat balls in the speakers.
