General audio topics that don't fit into specific categories.

Let's cut through the bullshit and frankly speak: a living room is

a woman's area of pride, PERIOD. Women fantasize long before marriage about what it's going to be like. They spend months researching, pricing, and bargain-hunting for furnishings, planning where everything is going to go, what colors and textures match just right, etc. The nesting urge is all-powerful and this is the center of it. Among her peers, this is Ground-Zero, and not just for the comfort of entertaining: it is the one place to showcase her design knowledge, her good taste, her respect for family and values. To invade and violate this hallowed space with, let's face it, overwhelming pieces of less-than-aesthetically pleasing boxes--- or worse, sci-fi shaped objects--- is not only to broadcast to her friends that she is tasteless, but also to suggest she is a beaten-down, subservient, un-appreciated and less-than-loved lackey.
The place for an audio system is in a dedicated room, or another shared space, i.e. guest bedroom; den. If one's space is so modest as to have neither of these, then the conscientious husband will sacrifice his ultimate speakers for either wall-enclosures or corner-types.
We all know the expression, "man cave?"
Well, the living room is "woman cave."
It's hard to believe so many guys are married and can know so little about women. I guess this partially explains our high divorce rate and the low rates of intercourse among so many American males after the first couple years of marriage.
"I'm going to have my audio in the living room and the hell with you---- just be grateful I don't disappear to a bar, come home, and beat you!"
Wow, that's a path to marital bliss, isn't it?
