    The maid asked her boss, the wife for a raise, and the wife was upset. The wife asked, “Now, Helen, why do you think you deserve a pay increase?”

    Helen: “There are three reasons. The first is that I iron better than you.”

    Wife: “Who said that?”

    Helen: “Your husband.”

    Wife: “Oh.”

    Helen: “The second reason is that I am a better cook than you.”

    Wife: “Who said that?”

    Helen: “Your husband.”

    Wife: “Oh.”

    Helen: “The third reason is that I am better at sex than you.”

    Wife: “Did my husband say that as well?”

    Helen: “No, the gardener did.”

    Wife: “So, how much do you want?”

    They only need a couple watts being some of the most efficient speakers ever made. That sx-828 is more than enough. Even my 20 watt sx-580. I was just giving it a try out of my collection of around 25 other receivers. Normally I use tube gear as a daily driver such as the Mcintosh MC225 with C20 or HH Scott 299 integrated.

    Tell us a little more about the speakers! And how does that pioneer receiver do driving them?

    The mere presence of those would make a Klipsch La Scala blush, though I don’t know sound wise how different they’d be.

    I was curious and looked these up for co$t. Yeah, I’m sorry, my friend, you win. That’s way too much$$ for me. That’s worth a whole lot of guns and old car restoration parts.
