So one time I came home with a pair of new speakers and my wife got really mad.

This ever happen to you guys?

Welcome!

My wife realizes that I could have a much worse past time(s), so she tolerates it.  Plus my audio indulgence isn't as much of an impact on her as her rabbit breeding/shows is on me.

Yes! I went out to buy a $1200 pair of speakers, which took A LOT of convincing, then came home with a $2500 pair instead. Doh! But she changed her tune once I fired them up. She fell in love with them like I did. Then all was peaceful in the household once again.

You got it made then!

$1200 'handbag' = acceptable.
$1200 speakers that will be used daily and last for 50 years
