I have an audio buddy who used to buy all of our older/leftover audio equipment as he did not want to buy new as his wife was keeping an "eye" on his "non-necessary" expenditures.
So he bought a powered Janis subwoofer from me and when I brought it to his house he wife came to the door and said her husband told her that he bought them a nice end table that also doubled as a "speaker". So the next time I visited his house his wife was very mad and said that every time she put a vase of flowers on this "end table" she would find them on the floor sometime after. I had to chuckle and she asked me what was going on and I told her you better ask your husband as I do not know what is going on as I never had that problem!
Or his other line with her was that we (his audio buddies) were "lending" him the audio equipment and it was only on loan, he figured after some time she would forget about it, that worked some of the time but not always.
