Default Wife approved!

So, I got things setup, for the most part, finally. Most of the treatment is in, the room is arranged, the monitors are setup and calibrated. It still needs some tweaking, which will come over the next weeks and months as I get to working with it, but it is sounding so good now, that I brought my wife in and sat her in the sweet spot and turned on one of my reference tracks.

I could tell she was trying not to, but I watched as a big smile came across her face.

I think watching someone else "get-it" and smile like that. Well, it was pretty awesome and tells me I'm not crazy for going through the trouble I have to get to this point. Not that I couldn't hear the difference myself, but sometimes we waste ourselves on worthless details.

Anyway, pretty happy right about now.

When choosing a wife, look for a big sweet spot.

Man, I could have cold coins spew forth from the speakers and my wife would still look at my stuff as "the other woman"

Love her to death though.

Great stuff man, looking forward to the pics.

My wife dedicated an entire room of the house to my stuff, sacrificing her own creative space.

Ask your wife "How do those pants feel?".

I may have to try this test on my wife when I fully implement all of my studio upgrades

Don't know about the wife, but here's a couple "studio" pics


Not finished, yet. Have a few more panels to put up and something to rig for the desktop reflections, but it's getting there. Sounds 1000% better already.

Nice! Congrats!

I had to shrink my studio down to 8 sqm as we moved in january. My wife wouldn't let me have the whole basement. But then she bought me a nice recording desk in order to fight my resulting depression :-)

A little well-placed whining can work wonders.
