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)

My wife's only contribution to my system was turning 4 phase bass traps in to a display pedestal for family pictures.
My biggest problem with my wife is a fact that she works in the same bank where we keep our money and she could easily pass FBI's forensic officer tests since I can't hide anything from her. The only thing she can't find is my remote control.
Cheers.

Timrhu. You obviously don't know my wife.
I am starting to get a feeling that I married CIA agent.
I also suspect that a GPS chip was implanted in my @#&.
Lately I started doing my laundry at work. At least proof of transactions are destroyed if I forget to check my pockets. So if you see one of my stuff on auction or for sale - don't ask me for receipt. One thing I learn really good is how to laundry money.
Cheers
