After the unfortunate passing of a friend and work colleague last month, some of us are trying to help his widow to recover as much value from his audiophile obsession as possible. Below is a list of items that he had set up in his media room. There has been little luck in finding a consignment shop in DFW for these items, so I thought I would open them up to the DMS community before they are taken to a consignment shop in another state.

Please avoid low-ball offers… we already have an offer for outright purchase from a specialty shop for most of the items, but we’d like to make sure that his widow can get a better offer if it’s available.
Please let me know if there is any interest.
