My five are similar to yours, with a couple of modifications since I have had excellent experiences purchasing used speakers, and most of my purchases have been of used equipment that I couldn't listen to first. Here are my 5;
1. Protect your hearing,
2. have fun and enjoy both the eqipment and music aspects of this hobby,
3. interact with others about your system and music,
4. don't overspend, rather build a system within your budget that sounds good on your music, and
5. maximize system effectiveness - through room treatments, vibration management, and clean, protected power.
