What is your audio axiom?

@mylogic + 1 - Indeed, I enjoyed music no less when I was a teenager listening to it on a transistor radio. A new Beatles song was every bit as thrilling on that. It's a different experience today, but enjoyment of songs is the same. 

I have three.

1. Don't get married.

2. Don't tell anyone about your audio hobby.

3. Don't ever think you can get "just a little closer" to your speakers when            vacuuming... 

It's about the music.

GOODMAN'S "AXIOM 80"!!  The Axiom of Axioms!   (If you can ever find one or more, in mint condition)

Good sound/audio quality used to be a priority in peoples lives. It still is for a very select few (who are still alive), but the vast majority of people could not care less about it. Bad is good enough and worse is fine too. The junk culture decimated this hobby over the past 40 years and the number of people who are discerning about anything, let alone audio, dwindles with each passing day. I still love it even though my friends and family think I'm out of my mind.
