Classic gear from yesteryear; vintage audio standing the test of time.

As they say, the devil is in the details...

You've got to remember this stuff has been sitting for quite a few years and you don't really know how well it works or what repairs might be needed. Even if it worked perfectly 10 years ago, capacitors, among other things, do not age gracefully. If you are buying it yourself, protect yourself on price, family or not. You can do your own research on ebay or elsewhere to see what range of prices are realized on COMPLETED auctions that actually resulted in a SALE. Looking at any other ebay auctions is just confusing. Good luck negotiating the complicated issues of "family" and "money." I don't envy you that one!

I'd vote for them just giving it all to you since you are obviously the only audiophile in the family. Isn't that what the departed would have wanted?

ps Don't forget to check out the vinyl collection...
