Dear Holtz,

Personally I think you should immediately tell your wife about your future upgrade plans. After all (Honesty is the best policy) and having met her, she seems very pleasant and understanding to me! Obviously the DSP 5000`s have more bass weight and presence than the 3100`s but sometimes for the sake of marital bliss a compromise is the best bet and in your case I would smile and tell her what a great idea she`s come up with. In fact why don`t you sit down and plan your future upgrade plans together? After all I do!!! Ho Ho
