That's a good question that most of us will have to deal with someday. You should be able to find a used record store that will buy whole collections. I have done that. Got rid of a bunch of old records that I did not want. The store bought the whole lot after looking through them to asses the relative value. Most were not worth much but it was a way to unload them without just throwing them in the trash and got a few bucks. Audio equipment can be sold here or taken to a used audio store much like music, you could even just donate it to them. It's to bad you don't have a younger person to hand it down to. That seems to be a common problem these days unfortunately.
Audio System Donation
About the
time I finish putting together my audio system I will be turning 68. Hope I
have years of enjoyable listening but I won’t live forever. So I began
wondering where to donate both the equipment and my eclectic CD collection in a
‘last will and testament’. No, family members is not an option. Considered a university
common room but these days so many students go the rap and hip hop route. Most
of my music would be wasted on this generation. Retirement communities, I suspect,
would have the opposite issue – too vanilla – with way too few hard blues,
fusion jazz and rock listeners at such a quiet place.
Thought I could open up a discussion here to receive reasonable suggestions. “Give it to me” is not a reasonable idea, and I will simply take down this post if people are that selfish or insensitive on this site.
