How Cool Is My Wife!


I thought my wife was pretty cool when we moved into our new house and she said, "Honey why don't you take the best room in the house for your dedicated listening room." I thought that was pretty cool, a 27" X 14" room for my gear (And boy is it a great sounding room). Well this year I almost droped dead when for my birthday she gave me a pair of Maggie 1.6's! I know what your thinking gentlemen. She's mine and she's a keeper!

My wife use to come with me to the Pacific NW Audiophile meetings every month. She was the only women attending every time! She also puts up with my HUGE Genesis 200 speaker system in our small condo in Seattle.
My wife will probably never give me that dream component,or let me have the biggest room in the house, but she always lets me set the living room up around my modest system! That is good enough for me!
Well my wife brings home the dough to buy any system upgrade I want. On top of that I can knock down any wall of the house(kitchen off limits) to accomodate my system.
You guy were so,so,so lucky had the wives like that. Me? Oh! No. Here is my story. When I bought a $15K system she always complaint me, even when I turn on my system (music) and have her listen and you know what she said : - I heard $149 a portable Aiwa cassete from my son room exactly the sound of your $15K audio system. What can I say to her???? Please advice !!!!!
Good thread Gary. When I retired (early), my wife not only let me remodel the house to combine 2 bedrooms into one listening room, but she paid for half the cost as a "retirement present". She may not understand audio weirdness, but she understands me. Craig.
