Mark also has a point, although you don't have to quiet as devious. My wife was very negative about buying floor standing speakers even after we built the larger home. Until she heard them.

She still pretends to have no interest in good audio but a personal victory for me was one time she returned from visiting her Mom and they tried to watch a movie on her TV and just the built in speakers. She started explaining to me how hard it was to watch the movie because it sounded so bad.
WIN!!!

So do make sure you take your wife if you come for an audition. You will still get a good idea of what many of the Axiom lineup sound like and you just might convince her she needs that exact pair. Worst case scenario, she can go have a chat with my wife about how silly we are. I'm sure my wife would enjoy that.
