Amateur inherited an audio system...


Recently I've inherited an audio system. I have no idea of what they are, I have never heard any of the brand names before, but upon checking on the internet I've found out they are somewhat high quality units. It consisted of Meridian 506 CD Player, Forte Forty-Four Pre-amp, Forte Fifty-Five Amp, Velodyne Sub and a pair of Rogers LS3/5A speakers. Some friend suggested I check out Audiogon.com, but as far as I can see most of the stuff are WAY over my head. Now that I found out about their value, my girlfriend is pressuring me to sell it, my question is.. Should I keep the system or sell it? It sounds very nice but my girlfriend keeps saying I don't need anything this fancy. Also, if I am going to sell it, is it better selling it as a system or piece-by-piece? Is eBay good for something like this? Any idea will be appreciated. Sorry for being so shallow, I really don't know much about high end audio... Thank you very much in advance.

I read my wife this post and some of the clever responses. Her first response was, "keep the gear and upgrade the girlfriend."
THANK YOU ALL! Reading some of the responses, I was doubling over from laughing so hard. I decided to keep the system for a while, like unsound said, I start out with nothing and got nothing to lose. The only drawback is that I lived in a one-bedroom apartment near Boston, so space is at a prime, and not much room can be spared for the spacing of the speakers and the stands. I'll try my best to place them. Also, I've told my girlfriend about the posting and some of the replies, she took it very well, so well in fact I think I'm going to wake up one morning with the Rogers speaker on my head. I might not get any for a while, but at least I will have my music. Thanks for all the replies.
Raycc,

None of us here actually know your girlfriend and I am sure none of us really wanted you to dump your grilfriend or sell her as some suggested. I think we all got carried away and wanted you to know that the sytem is very good and that you should not make a hasty decision.

My hats off to your girlfriend for showing understanding and taking it lightly, the comments made by some.

I am taking the liberty to say on behalf of all who posted on this thread that may you enjoy the system AND the girlfriend for a long time to come. :-)
Like I used to tell my EX-WIFE. Needs got nothing to do with it. I have what I need, I'm working on what I want!
