This thread makes me laugh. But only because I AM the wife... and I'm the audiophile... and the system is mine (had it pre-marriage).
My husband isn't an audiophile. He's respectful though, especially about purchases and listening time. He enjoys listening to most of my music and even his own on the system. The only time he asks me to turn it down or off is if I've had jazz playing for too long (he's not a jazz fan).
The only times we get into 'arguments' about the stereo are times we get into discussion about things. He's a software engineer... so things like USB DACs and digital audio fascinate him.. but he thinks in terms of software programs and not sound quality so sometimes discussions get a bit heated... but not too bad.
