Do any of you kids , want your system ???


Gents: 

I’ve experienced a buy/sell of my giant speakers

anyway, As we are an older Demographic 

2 questions: 

1) if you go to audiophile Heaven,  do any of your kids want your Hifi ?
    I asked that , over Christmas, and caught a defeating silence and laugh “ no” frickin way
    Way to big !!!  And lots of laughs over the conversation 
2) when that time comes , How does anybody get rid of all the Hifi stuff ?         Does the spouse?   Cuss you out and sell for $5 a garage sale ?   My guess; it’s a lot of work to sell correctly ?   My wife answer was enlightening!!!
It’s an ugly/funny question , But I’m really wondering how it happens

My father wanted me to play football in high school. He very much liked the game and just assumed that I would as well. I was indifferent but my mother encouraged me to play for him. I was objectively better than average but had no passion and took no joy in it. Practice and playing was just fulfilling an obligation to him. 

My point is I don’t know for sure if my son will honestly want my audio systems when I’m gone and I don’t worry about it. He certainly has right of first refusal, but I don’t try to get him to see value as I see it. My passions won’t ever be his burden.
