Advice on how to liquidate system


Few weeks ago, I sustained traumatic blast induced hearing loss during a training incident. The level of hearing loss and tinnitus is pretty bad, I’ve had only a minimal level of improvement. midrange and upper frequencies sound like a 1970’s transistor radio. Horrible. The reality of the situation is looking like my audiophile days are pretty much over. Now I’m thinking of what to do with the gear…the thought of dismantling my rig and selling piece by piece is nauseating. Are there any resources that would come in and take it all? At this point I really don’t give a crap about being lowballed, it’s aggravating to look at what Ive put so much time and effort into and not be able to enjoy it. I need to move on.

Glad to read your optimistic report. You can and will push through this and I'm hoping that you'll come out much stronger on the other side. Do take all the caring advice provided in this thread into consideration and do what you think is right. Blessings to you and your family.

Definitely give it some time. I had an incident that affected my hearing as a child. The specialist told my parents that I’d be deaf before I reached 20. Not so as the ringing gradually diminished over the years to the point that I hardly notice it unless I’m thinking about it. 

Cancer survivor. Chemo really did in my left ear which had already been spotty. Just hold off for a year. You may find different gear a better choice, but wait.
