As a young adult I have a question. If your wives constantly complain regarding your purchases of audio products, how do your wives justify their spending on bags and shoes that seem to have exorbitant price tags that only seem to rise up and up exponentially depending on the brand logo?

You assume women are rational and need to justify their actions logically. If my wife and past girlfriends are a proper measure you are sorely mistaken.

My wife doesn't. But to answer you question, people in a relationship ( women and men equally) are never fully rational. How boring it would otherwise. You need some irrationality for a good argument

It is so much easier to get 60%-70% off on Coach and Louis Vitton than Shure and UE

I assume it's ok to talk about this, since this thread is hopelessly off-topic at this point.

I guess I am lucky that my girlfriend is a musician who enjoys hi-fi

I never heard of Louis Vuitton having a sale before. They just destroy/burn their products if it dont sell and out of season.

People often complain about high end audio ripping people off. I think it pales in comparison to brand named clothes.... Even if it LV have a 80% sale it's still 80 times over priced.

That would be a short argument at my house, because if I start calling her a b****, she would remain calm, grab her suitcase and leave...

There are distributors and wholesalers - you need to know who to play golf with.

I bought my wife a pair of SE3 when I got my SE5 and she is like: they sound nice. Many people would kill for a pair of SE3...
 
Anyways she can accept any expense from my part, what she will not accept is me talking about it everyday. Like last night I was like : "This a-hole on headfi said this iem sounded like that blablabla" and she was like "Look at my face, do I look like a give a screw" ?

Awesome. Too bad about the new SE5s being inferior to the old ones, I'm listening to an old set and they are very nice, everything AstralStorm said they were.
