Here is the kind of ad on Audiogon that comes up all too often where the guy blames his wife for having to sell his gear:
"Description (EAR Yoshino 868)
1.7 year old, pristine condition, upgraded with Telefunken NOS 7DJ8 tubes. Tubes and preamp have only about 250 hours on them. Four outputs, two RCA, two XLR, and a additional XLR input. I will also include the OEM EAR tubes- two 6922's, two 7DJ8's. Chrome faceplate and control knobs. very nice preamp. My wife is absolutely against the expensive audio equipment in our house and that is why I have to sell it."
This one is a slight variation on the theme of the "wife says it has to go because the stereo doesn't fit her decor." This time it's the wife doesn't like expensive audio equipment. I'm always tempted to tell these guys to get rid of the wife and keep the equipment. They would probably be happier in the long-run.
