WAF - Wife Acceptance Factor


Much has been written in these threads about the dreaded WAF, or wife acceptance factor. It usually entails making a compromise, or not getting that perfect speaker, or amp, or ... Well you get the picture.

But tell the truth guys. Haven't there been times when wifey actually helped?

In my case, I casually mentioned to my wife that the picture quality of my front projector would be much improved if I could better cotrol the light in the den. So what did she do?

She put up nice thick curtains. It not only blocks the light and makes the den like a cave, it also improves the diffuse surround sound field with the absorptive material. What a gal!

Would love to hear your stories. :o)

This thread has been dormant for about 17 years. I am curious as to how many divorces have  occurred?

Yesh my 2 ex wives like music and going to concerts. But me spending money on audio equipment upgrades and buying vinyl albums or cds at one time....No Way...so I'm now single...oh well.lol

 I would think most people have 2 systems:

1) family room needs to look clean: $4k stereo for TV and music

2) any room other than the family room that the gear doesn’t have to hide from view: I have a spare bedroom for a mixed use $40k music/cinema with 150in screen with 3D (100 3D movies).  My video
