What should my heirs do to dispose of my vinyl and CDs?

Sadly I will say that there is probably NO ONE in my family that will benefit form my 2100 album collection and similarly NO ONE in my family would have any clue how to reconnect my equipment so that it could produce any kind of quality sound. Even my neighbors! I had one neighbor a few months back that when I asked about DONATING some speaker cables when upgrading, she said that she didn’t know that ANYONE even made stereos that had separate speakers anymore. This is the society which we have created.

I like several others here have a family that have zero interest in my audio and to go a step further neither of my kids want basically anything in the house.  Hard to believe my son who is a car guy doesn't even want his choice of several Corvettes! The most baffling part to me is that he doesn't even want some of his grandfather's (who he is named after) things.  Not crappy stuff either. 

My daughter will get some beautiful heirloom jewelry.

In my kids defense I will say they are very busy with big-time jobs. Good for them.  

So, I'm going to start selling guns (not all mind you), tools, tool boxes, car parts and motorcycles. The Corvettes stay 'till the end as well the stereo. I probably have ten good years left in me (69 now).

My solution to the stereo "problem" is I have identified two audiophiles close by...one will take the speakers and the other the electronics and keep what they want, sell what they don't.

So, possibly find an Audio Society near you, make some new friends and see if they are willing to help.

A while ago I worked on my Music Collector software and cataloged my vinyl collection according to genre. I have been keeping track of my records on this software for quite a long time but I decided that the time had come to add ratings and subjective value to each album. I am doing this for my two sons who I am leaving the collection with when the time comes. Naturally I have added comments to some of the records in the data base explaining why this particular album has more value than others. Things like that. Both the boys love music and have been listening to my rantings all of their lives. I know they probably don't want or need these things of mine but if they end up with them I am pretty sure they will use and keep as it goes. For this reason I have also thought of selling the whole mess. I know they wouldn't care. They will be fine if they get them and fine if they don't. 

My system worth over $100k and not easy just to pack up and sell. At least for my family. I would tell my family to have my dealer to pick up everything, I don’t care how much less my family would get. At least they don’t need to deal with it. 
 

as my vinyl & CD collection, they are precious to me and worthless to most ppl. Even I have a lot of special editions and collectibles, I would give them to charity.
