Need some advice. Trying to help a neighbor in need.....


Folks:

I come seeking help for a dear neighbor.

Husband is suffering from Alzheimer's and recently his kind wife had to place in him a care facility.  2 years ago I posted on AVS to get some help with installing a new fuse panel in one of the amps.  That board helped me a bit and we took care of the blown fuse. 

Well, I'm now here seeking more advice as the Husband is no longer listening to the equipment because he is living in the care center and understandably the wife needs the cash from this equipment.

The husband was a big audiophile back in the day and has a wonderful collection of vinyl (over 1000 pristine records...very impressive). About 15 or so years ago, well before he fell ill, he assembled a terrific audio room for listening.  He has:

Sonus Faber Elipsa left and right floor standing speakers in perfect condition.
Musical Fidelity kW Tri-vista Monoblock Power amplifiers (both channels)
KWP PSU
kWP PREAMP and amplifier
Shunyata Research Hydra power conditioner Model 8 (I think)
All the expensive cables and stands that go with it.
Over 1000 vinyl in excellent condition.

I just came back from their house after taking photos of all of the equipment. My next move is to try to help sell everything for the "right" price.  I want to help her move these wonderful assets--but not get taken.  

She has original boxes for everything and I'm telling you, they've been well cared for. 

I was considering listing things here on Audiogon; however, I assume the Sonus Faber's alone would list around 7 to 8K.  Add on to that Musical Fidelity set (only 70 or so were made) has to be sought-after items would also be rather expensive. 

That said,  I just don't know how comfortable I am suggesting she use this service if I can't really get a feel for the protection that she could have to ensure she doesn't get taken in this process.

Just curious what most of you would do in this situation.  How to best liquidate these items for her.

Agreed with the music room recommendations. They're fair, tried and tested, and within driving distance so you don't have to worry about shipping. https://tmraudio.com/
