What is your audio axiom?

I continually fool myself I'm done upgrading or changing things, don't know if a 'true' audiophile is ever done? Just purchased another SET amp to add to the collection, don't need it yet somehow I find myself the new owner of yet another audio component. The need to taste different flavors replaces absolute need.

Have fun, with which ever system you built and are listening to.  Relish a world of satisfaction rather than relentless critique and unsettled search.
I apply that axiom to travel.  I enjoy whatever level I’m at to include living and working overseas.  It’s all good and I’ve been doing it for decades.

This idea of unique and/or individual recording quality variation is something that has really come into focus for me in recent years. I derive enjoyment from the nearly endless variation in recording qualities, by this I mean paying attention to the choices of producers/engineers in producing a work of art. We are not merely listening to musicians with these recordings, so many others involved to presenting these works of art. 

My scale of judgement has far surpassed just good and/or bad, mostly I just turn off the judgement and let the presentation come to me, listening sessions far more satisfying when one turns off the judgement cap. Some believe the more resolving a system becomes the more the warts will reveal themselves, no doubt this true so then it becomes how one perceives those warts.
