SVS PB12Plus, my wife and a sin

No, do not panic. She is very careful, and also enjoys our AV gear (but thinks I give away too much money ).

So what happened, then? Let me first tell you that I have been treasuring the accessories I got with my SVS sub.

Today, my wife came to me, and told me she was doing the list of our domestic tasks Painful enough in itself, right? Well, not only that, but she was using for the first time my precious SVS ballpen!

Yeah, I know, I should not workship false idols... But I have no other religion

Fortunately, we do not have a dog (yet), otherwise I can imaging my port plugs torn apart, scratches on the piano black finish, ...

Re: SVS PB12Plus, my wife and a sin

Isn't the sub "water" proof?

I am glad it is downfiring, though
