Both, but WAF which I used to think was just an old wives tale but is absolutely a thing!
I have had couples walk in and then literally turn on their heel and walk out when the partner has said, ‘you are not having those in our house’.
That was mostly horns to be fair, my last customer had to barter for some 8Cs with a new patio.
I remember my first 8Cs customer he asked his wife what she thought ( switching instantly between both speakers Harbeth and 8Cs) and she said quick as a flash, ‘ the 8Cs are clearer with better bass’ which absolutely said it all.
Later that same day we were discussing the customers Linn streamer which had a slight issue, I advised taking it back as something that cost that much, then mentioned the actual price, the partner was horrified Neil had obviously not told her the actual cost!
If only the ground could have swallowed me whole.
