I've been prepping Mrs. Nimrod about the new sound system for a couple weeks.

Today was my chance to strike! Mrs. Nimrod was out of the house, got the SV Sound 12 plus from work and hooked it up.

Mrs. Nimrod was on her way out to a party, she didn't see the monster, so I introduced the 12 Plus to her. :eek: "Its way, way, way, way, way to big. Its a piece of furniture. Thats where I wanted to put the Christmas tree."

Then she went out to her party. All in all it could have gone alot worse, we have a chance here fella's. Tomorrow I'll hook up the Onkyo 705, and the SV Bookshelfs. Pray for me.;)

Hey Nimrod...find a really cool movie with lots of bass...say Finding Nemo...put it in the dvd and have her sit in the sweet spot and watch/listen. Bring her a jug of her favorite beverage. Allow her to soak it all in.

My prediction?!

If the MRS is into movies with impact, you have nothing to worry. But, if not, likes it low volume, :eek: then you better hope she goes out for long trips when you can watch and finish the movie.:D

Size and WAF were the reasons I opted for the SB12.
Good luck.

Hey, where's our update? Does the ex-Mrs Nimrod get custody of the PB12-Plus on the weekends, or what?

Thanks for asking

Okay, still breathing..... It was close.... touch and go...
Down right hostile around the Nimrod mansion for a couple of days.
"We don't have a freaking mansion... What the hell are you thinking.... that thing is waaaaaaaaaaaay to big.... that thing is a piece of furniture... no way, etc.."

Then she saw all the other boxes in the garage (center channel and the 4 bookshelves) and she's REALLY not happy:eek:

The benefits (wisdom) gained after being married 20 years = HUNKER DOWN like the Russians at Stalingrad, wait her out.

She's still kind off *****ing about it; she made me move the sub to the other side of the living room (so we could put the Christmas tree in the first spot)

I explained the benefits of all the new av stuff, "it makes me happy, we need this, its our home, etc." I been light hearted (but not an *** kisser) about everything in general so the situation is being "Diffused"

Bottom line, I think Mrs. Nimrod is going to let me keep it:rolleyes:

Stress?!?

That’s what goes “with the territory” when you marry a pretty blond.

I’m going to go to “Bed Bath and Beyond” tonight (I have a 20% off coupon) and get a nice Christmas type “Doilies” to put on top of the Sub. That should help.

That's my biggest laugh of the day. That's great! "Here Honey, let me put some lipstick on this pig. You won't even notice it's pig.":D:D:D

MAZER FOR PRESIDENT!! :D :D :D
No we will leave that up to Nimrod for pulling this off. I had my day in the sun doing the same thing. Except I just had the stuff delivered and never told her. She was the one that greeted the delivery truck. The SVS was nothing. The 73" Mitsu was the trouble maker. Then again the SVS was a year after the 73". LOL :D
