    Wow. That's an awesome sub!

    Oh, and btw, you have your mains listed as 'LSI5'...pretty sure you mean LSi15.

    Looks like a great setup!

    What a crazy thread.
    I do not even know where to start.

    In my relationship we discuss large purchases up to a point but I have not discovered what that point is. If she bought something for $2000.00 of her money I might trip alittle but not to the point of "it goes or I go". I would like to be involved in that purchase. Especially if she wanted to replace a peice of my HT.

    I recently spent over $1000.00 on another hobby I have and she didn't even trip.

    It depends on many things but one is establishing a base line of what is acceptible. I think you have found the high in that figure.

    Next time go for something in the $1500.00 range and check his reaction.
    If he has no problem then he learned his lesson and you spend $2000.00 again to make sure.
    If he gets pissed then step down to $1200.00 to see if that makes him happy.

    Each time you check him you get something new and learn more about yourmate.
    eventually you will either find a comfort zone or a new mate. :D

    If he is willing to let you keep the house, the least you could do is point him out to his replacement and laugh your way to happy ever after.

    Aww, it was just a little burn mark on BDT's neighbors roof, nothing to be overly concerned about. We had the access to a hose in case the flames really got big.
