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.

@bastereo,

Sorry to hear about your husband’s poor health. In addiction to estate liquidator, contact a local dealer who may be interested in selling items on a consignment. They can do the inventory and get you more money for your stuff.

Do you have any music to sell? I am in Texas and be happy to haul it away.

Sorry for your husband's illness.
If you want to sell it yourself you can get ideas of price here and on hifishack.
You could list here or for free on usaudiomart.
You could also call a local audio equipment store and sell it as a lot to themMaybe some of your husband's hifi buddies could help you with pricing.
Good luck

I suggest you call an estate liquidator in your area.

When mom died we listed Estate Sale on Craig's List. There are people who make a living cleaning out stuff like this and then reselling it. Had two of them make some pretty decent offers sight unseen. $2k for everything in the garage. Like that.  

If you want it gone you can have it gone and still have a tidy little sum in the end. Without even dealing with audiophiles, who will only make everything a million times harder than it needs to be. (Yours truly being the obvious exception that proves the rule.)
