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.

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!
"You don't need anything that fancy"...remember that phrase when it comes time for an engagement ring.
Play her favorite romantic music on the new system, light a candle, share a nice wine/champagne and tell her how you drown in her beautiful eyes. Spend the evening talking about your favorite past times together. Hope she no longer asks you to sell the system for that big diamond she always wanted.

No need to get rid of either. Enjoy both. Remember - you cannot sleep with your music system.
