Back in the days when I was busy buying most of the components for my main stereo I had two very nice ways of getting around the spousal approval requirement. First for several years I had a job which often gave out year end bonuses of which I would use about half to treat myself to some equipment upgrades. Second I had a nice part time job writing jazz reviews for a now defunct online site (SonicNet) and I used that money to upgrade to my Vandersteen 3A Signatures. Also I tend to buy previously owned equipment which in the audiophile world is often quite easy to find since audiophiles are forever chasing the next big thing and so there's plenty of the last big thing available. By the way before I had the two methods mentioned above I made the mistake of bypassing the spouse when purchasing a rather costly piece equipment. I can tell you from experience DON'T EVER DO SUCH A FOOLISH THING!!! :) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ralphpnj's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10827 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=97950 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
