My oldest son loved my Krell, Apogee, Linn, Dynavector system from the 90’s and wanted them when I no longer did(AKA died). He preferred vinyl for serious listening. Four years ago I when I was diagnosed with a terminal illness of expected short duration I gave him my records, the Krell and the Linn plus my Chartwell LS 3/5a’s. I kept the Apogees so I could update the crossovers. But by that time my second son wanted something too so I began to build a second system that was more ‘modern’ and built around streaming and apartment living. But he loves tubes. I’ll keep that system until I really depart. Which is better? It’s a generational thing.
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
