Whats the right way to change horses


Never had the bucks to do real audiophile, but put together a nice Hegel H160 , Rel T9i and SF Concerto system that really worked for me for a few years (mostly single artist listening). Now at 70, I'm parting that out on Facebook MP and looking to move to some simple powered speakers. But thinking, wouldn't it be nice if you could just trade-in you're past gear for a new model, like cars. 

I see the same thing with guitars, moving from steel sting acoustic Gibson guitars to nylon string Classical guitars, just no bridge there,,, not complaining, but seems like there should be a business that does that for you, so you don't have to.

You will reap the greatest reward by putting in the effort to sell yourself one piece at a time. Unfortunately that’s a PITA and be careful so you’re not scammed by a buyer. My brother sold off a ton of expensive guitar gear years ago and the low life’s came out of the bushes. @whipsaw , LOL regarding your T O P quote. I bought my first car , custom party van in 1975 from a member of T O P. I lived in Fresno and the guy was on tour so I paid his sister. The Conti’s are from this area and over the years about 50 people have been in their lineup. So I’m off to Bump City for the holiday. Cheers , Mike B.

why? For the $? For the change? For the  space? Decent powered speakers cost a lot and you may not like the sound.

That sounds like real audiophile to me. 

TMR is great, though some people don't seem to know anything about how they do business. Nobody is screwing anybody unless they hold a gun to yer head and demand you buy from or sell to them. I'm always happy to do business with them.
