Regarding rule #2 where you say:"quality and price are related, but it's too complicated"
I don't think it's complicated and quality and price aren't always related, especially with our so-called "audiophile" gear and some of the junk peddlers out there.
I've seen some inexpensive gear that is well built with attention to detail using quality parts - and no unnecessary items like thick front panels with handles that can double as weapons.
And I've seen some fairly expensive gear that looks like it was slapped together as part of a high school shop class project. It amazes me what "audiophiles" will buy.
I won't mention specific brands because it will only cause a major stir not only from owners but from dealers who sell this crap.
