Wilson Audio Specialties Chronosonic XVX loudspeaker!! only $300,000.oo

This "wife" thing which often show up in stereophile reviews seems to be  an editorial directive. It is a truly painful rethoric and it makes me doubt of all the rest. This things look like Terminator twins. I cannot imagine them sounding effortless. 

With these and most Wilson speakers form follows function. If I was committed enough to purchase them, I would certainly appreciate them in there entirety, for the sound they are capable of producing and decorate my audio area appropriately to integrate their look.

Quite frankly after a decade of ugly black boxes followed by ugly black towers that I subjected my partner to in the name of better sound, these beautifully finished speakers would be imposing but an improvement. Personally I think my partner would appreciate them because she knows the commitment I made to my career and her to provide us with the comfortable life and the large place in we live (large enough that she would never have to see them), that if they make me happy (after she gave me grief for actually spending twice as much on speakers as our first house), and she thinks I deserve the rewards I have earned.

wow! That's a window to a world.
