How to dispose of your system?


A lot of us are getting to the age where  we may start thinking about what will happen to our precious systems when we’re gone?  Will they be sold in pieces, breaking up the synergy we’ve worked so hard to establish? That seems to me to be criminal.  
What about trying to sell the whole system, kit and kaboodle, maybe to a member of this forum? Would anyone, perhaps a novice, be willing to pay for a very finely tuned instrument? 
If the system cost say,  $35K to put together, what would a fair price be?

Thanks very much for the tip.  It seems the most logical way to go jf they take care of the entire project.

To those with harsh words; this gentleman obviously has integrity and genuine concern. I see someone genuinely concerned that his matters, hobby or otherwise, are taken care of with great care. To the others; you have presented some fine suggestions that I'm sure are greatly appreciated. As an audiophile, our hobby is no different that any other. We're passionate about it and it matters to us, and we enjoy sharing that passion with others. So in that vein, we hope that someone will take care and insure that someone else may be able to enjoy what we found so appealing and satisfying.

I acknowledge all the posts regarding the problem of room placement and  the fun of putting your own system together.  But some music lover who likes good sound but isn’t a hobbyist might appreciate such an arrangement.

This is a demographic phenomenon.  The baby boomer pot smoking rock and roll loving generation (I was born in 1951) is aging out.  There is a glut of gear coming onto the market and a dearth of motivated buyers…added to the fact that qualified service techs are few and far between this makes resale more difficult and less profitable.  I use FBM and USAM but it’s a slow process.
