Can you help or do I have to get divorced?


Size and Placement does matter do to a misunderstood wife. I can't have speakers on stands, I can't have floorstanding speakers, and in-wall speakers are too permanent. What in the hell am I suppost to do? My room is 17' X 14' and I'm looking for speakers that will be used for music listening and eventually home theater listening. (when I can afford to complete the system). I want to find a good pair of speakers and amp that I can eventually build a good home theater system with. I need to stay below $1,000 for speakers. Any advice?

Lets see...you cant have speakers on stands, you cant have floor standers and you dont want in wall... You have three choices the way I see it 1. Divorce 2. headphones or 3. hang some speakers from the ceiling.
P.S. I'd consider #1
I've been married to the same woman for 20 years. The other day I told her I was going to sell a piece of Audio gear ($3,000 preamp). She talked me out of it. I couldn't believe what she was saying and her aguments for keeping it. She has come a long way since the day we almost divorced over my first SAE amps. We still go on occassional dates to Audio stores. Hang in there.
Check out the new Meadowlark monitor that is front ported and designed to work on a shelf or in a cabinet.
Start leaving your dirty underwear in different rooms and in surprising places around the house.

When she's had enough, tell her you are more than willing to negotiate a deal.

I've not tried this because my wife knows better, but I understand this strategy has worked for others.

Keep us posted.
