What is an


For the purpose of classifying a system on Audiogon:

This question may have been previously addressed somewhere in the Forum. But just wondering....
Is an "All Out Assault" system gauged by an unsaid monetary value (not necessarily money spent)? $50M, $100M, more? Is there a minimum entry fee $$$?
Is it an evaluation of sonic performance regardless of $$$? Who's evaluation?
Is it monetarily based on the percentage of ones disposable income?
Is it the anticipated reaction/perception of other "goners?
Does it represent the current state of the art? Or could it be vintage, but top of the line equipment?
Does it require a purpose-built music room?
Does "all out assault" infer "done for now"?
If a system is continually improving through time, aren't they all "evolving"?
Who doesn't want "opinions please" posted on their system?
Is anyone really "done for now" in this hobby? For how long?
Just wondering before the baseball game starts....

I'd like to see a category of vintage systems too....I guess now since its 2014, vintage might mean anything from the mid 80's on back?
