Speakers for the family room... and WAF

[Joey_V]

So, I have some Klipsch reference speakers that I've had for some time now - all post-Summit sale 4y ago.

My wife and I were talking about the move to Dallas TX and to our new house. I bring up the fact that the media room will likely be only for 2 channel audio and that I'd have to buy a new set of speakers and components for it - she was OK with it.

Shocker number 1:
Buying new speakers is apparently OK.

Then we discuss what to do with the Klipsch 5.1 system that I have currently. This was shocker number 2.
Wife:
"I don't think those boxy speakers should go into the family room. They won't match and they're ugly."

Me:
"Well I can't put them in the media room because that's where the stereo speakers will go."

Wife:
"What if you get a set of those clear, glassy like speakers?"

Me:
"Which glassy like speakers?"

Wife:
"The one you had before with the panel."

Me:
"You want me to buy Martin Logans for the family room???" (shocked)

Wife:
"Yes."

Me:
*stunned*

Never thought I'd hear the day when the wife encourages me to feed the audio habit. I must comply.

Joey, buy the speakers NOW, before the wife changes her mind; wimmin have been known to do that. Do you think she will notice if you buy CLX's instead of Summits?

AWESOME! Welcome back to the fold, Joey!




...and NO, you can't have your Summits back...

If you have the room and the money, look to the CLX's.

Yes... the CLX are clearly the glassiest of the glassy-like speakers

I knew you married well.

Congratulations Joey; she loves you, never forget that...

LOL! Nice. They are indeed!

 

[Joey_V]

Definitely a costly endeavor to equip the 2ch audio room AND the family room.

May have to go with used MLs for the family room.
