WAF - Wife Acceptance Factor


Much has been written in these threads about the dreaded WAF, or wife acceptance factor. It usually entails making a compromise, or not getting that perfect speaker, or amp, or ... Well you get the picture.

But tell the truth guys. Haven't there been times when wifey actually helped?

In my case, I casually mentioned to my wife that the picture quality of my front projector would be much improved if I could better cotrol the light in the den. So what did she do?

She put up nice thick curtains. It not only blocks the light and makes the den like a cave, it also improves the diffuse surround sound field with the absorptive material. What a gal!

Would love to hear your stories. :o)

Our W/P 8's speakers and mono amps our in our living room. My WAF was great until I bought the Lamm 2.1's which she tolerates but thinks they are ugly (I agree). She campaigning for some better looking amps. I'll go for that once I found something better than the Lamm 2.1's. She totally backs that approach -so it's a minor compromise between us.
