SELLING IT ALL


Hi, all: I am in East Texas. My husband has so much equipment I can’t even spreadsheet it all. He is now in a nursing home with dementia and will not be coming home. I want to sell all the equipment, and am a motivated seller. Some of the brands: Marantz, Bryston, Linn Klout, Linn Kairn, Linn Magic, Linn Keil, Parasound, Theil, Klipsch, Polk Audio, Cambridge, Audio Research. Then lower end stuff like Sony, Yamaha, Onkyo, Teac, etc. Miles of cables/interconnects (Audio Magic, Audio Quest, Toslink, and others -- hard to inventory. Best ones are not on this list because they are behind equipment.) Lots of power wedges. DACs, power conditioners, and misc. other stuff like racks.
it.

Sorry to hear of your troubles, went through the same thing with my father-in-law.

Many good suggestions above.  You didn't mention it, but are there any family members nearby that could step in and help?  I go along with everyone who says that it would be best to catalog everything first: make, model, condition, box/no-box, operating manuals.  Once that is accomplished you can send it off to different entities for evaluation and then chose the most pain free way for you to go.

This is a daunting task, but just think if you did 10 items a day...that would be 100 items in 10 days.  BTW, I'm not suggesting you do this with CDs, but vinyl is another story and could be very valuable.

How do you eat an elephant?  One bite at a time!

All the best.
