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

Had serious talks with a musically inclined nephew of mine regarding inheritance of my audio system, recordings and (even greater interest) collection of vintage keyboards, guitars and amps that I own.  He' still on and he feels 2 of the 3 grandchildren are good with it as well (for what that is worth at a young age . . . ).

Now, that bro who gave life to that nephew?  Crated up carefully an older Linn/Arcam-Monitor audio based system that I had for years and thought a wonderful present some time back.  He uncrated it, then put it in a closet about 18 years ago and never looked at it again.

It pays to discuss this in advance.  If I couldn't find anyone interested, I'd make arrangements through a shop/musician friend to find someone with little that would take pleasure in owning it.
