Are there any absolute truths???

Whenever I ask an audio question it seems the answer always starts out with "Well...it depends". So I'm wondering if there are any audiophile "absolute truths" that we all can file away as great advice and use confidently over and over again. Just to get it started, I'll offer up the following and see how long they hold up before they get shot down.

Audiophile Absolute Truths:

#1. The quality of the stereo system is what the owner says it is, not someone else.

#2. System synergy is more important than anything else.

Both humorous and serious replies are welcome.

It's easier, cheaper and more time efficient to consider yourself a music lover instead of an audiophile.

Stay behind the technology curve and buy used to save lots of $$$.

Audio mags can be enjoyable to read, but if you ever find yourself taking them seriously, stop reading them.

Lasagna is better than turkey, but only with the perspective of taste. In terms of a healthy diet, turkey is much better. I don't see how ANYBODY could claim that lasagna is better than turkey is an absolute truth. Geesh!
