How to dispose of your system?

My own designs for a farewell is a 'mantra' well known to Loved Ones - Remember You were all very very Loved - Fire Up the Digger - Cut the Hole down by the Dogs place of rest - Drop Me In - Drop the HiFi on Top - Drop In any other Crap I've collected and done all your heads in and is no longer to be tolerated - Backfill - My strong advice to Family - No matter what circumstances surround my departure - It is a result of current Living - Let It Be, I F**king Mean It, Let It Be.

I will then have left the 7 Billion of Us currently alive on the Planet and will have joined the estimated 117 Billion who had their time, of which (my calc's) approx' 100+Billion would not have known an electronic device, let alone an Audio System.

Material Items, are as a design, a very very disposable commodity. If one wants to reach outside of such an ingrained mindset, the Circular Economy is a great place to become familiar with.  

@rvpiano Oops you did it again.

Try not to beat yourself up. Why punish yourself?
You may very well by taking this route, unduly worry yourself to death.

”My biggest fear is the wife selling all my gear for what I told her I paid for it. 🤣”

I share your concern, it’s a real thing- https://youtu.be/97tXnPMSUGg?si=4NlZ_UlAYojbpIoq

Make a spreadsheet with everything on it and show price paid along with average selling prices. Put the contact info on it for any audiophile friends along with TMR.

I’ve sold off 75% of my gear in the last nine months for the reason the OP alluded to.

@rooze Spreadsheets

Were you an accountant or a banker?
 

When l was speed reading your last post, l pre supposed you were about to say …..”l’ve sold off 75% of my gear in the last nine months (l had been given left to live) for the reason the OP alluded to”

Always look(ing) on the bright side of life, profit and return.
