The Audiophile's Wife

that's fantastic - great observation, great humor, and great writing!

thanks for sharing.

Fantastic stuff.
My wife is not connected at all to my "hobby," as she calls it. She endures. Over the years she has favorably commented on one pair of speakers, and that was because of their looks.

Well written,humorous,and all to true. A pleasure to be harpooned by her incisive wit. The spousal unit was sincerely amused.

Very enjoyable reading. Your wife articulates what many wives must be experiencing. I had a pair of speakers in the late 80s and 90s that my wife loved. Couldn't care how they sounded, she loved how they looked. It has been 10 years now since I sold them but she still mentions now and then her disappointment at their replacements.

Your wife is an extremely good writer, very impressed. "audio winning," I'll be using that for now on!

Great fun! Keep it up!

Best,

Dave

Great blog- showed it to my better1/2. BTW what is your granny gear- say it's not 39/25

Very nice.

My own wife is not the least audiophile.

The bummer being that I can spend all day rolling tubes and perhaps barely noticing any difference whatsoever... and then my wife comes home...after I put all of the boxes (evidence) away, and she notices immediately that the system sounds "more woody' tonight.

I buy it. She hears it, but couldn't really care less.

What a great piece of work - why is audio such a "guy" thing anyway?

Loved the Allison Krause piece! Already forwarded the link to my equally subjected wife. Thanks for sharing!

That was very entertaining and made my evening (along with a little Electric Dirt and Dirt Farmer by Levon Helm).

Terrific! Your wife has a talent and encourage her to keep going.

Your wife has a great sense of humor. Her great wit seems to be very good.
I also think she's a great writer. She's missed her calling if she doesn't write for a living.
Give her a thumbs up from me and my wife. For my wife can relate so well.

That was fun - sharp writing and rings true! I bookmarked this one and look forward to the next addition.
