On a scale of 1-5

In trying to understand how price driven, and why, we are as a community, rate yourself on the two scales below:

Price Sensitive
1 - Price is only a small issue, and I value absolute improvement highly over the cost differential to get there.
2 - Split the difference between #1 and #3
3 - I balance cost vs benefit, and maintain a focus on finding the "knee of the curve" in improvement vs. cost
4 - Split the difference between #3 and #5
5 - Price is a huge issue. I will only pay for something I consider to be a substantial improvement, and even then only if I consider this to be the cheapest I can get it.

Cost correlation to quality
1 - I find that cost and quality have a random relationship , and have no sense that by spending more I am much more likely to have a better audio experience.
2 - Split the difference between #1 and #3
3 - I believe spending more definitely increases your chances of audio satisfaction, but have plenty of examples where it doesn't such that I am still cautious in making that assumption.
4 - Split the difference between #3 and #5
5 - I believe there is a high correlation between cost and quality - I get what I pay for - and I shape my research, shopping and buying accordingly.
