Answer 1

Depending on the make and model of the equipment, it might fetch a few dollars "for parts or repair."

If it is a well-known vintage brand such as Sansui, Technics, McIntosh, Pioneer, Thorens, etc, It may be sought-after.

You might try posting an ad on ebay, your local craigslist, or even an audio forum such as Audio Asylum or AudioKarma.

Otherwise, I would consider listing it with Freecycle. It's a service which allows you to post notices for items you wish to give away. Freecycle.org

Answer 2

Check your local area and see if there are any electronic repair schools or colleges around. Sometimes they like that stuff for the students to tinker on and try to fix> I donated a used car that was dead to a school for mechanics to fix up and re-sell and I got a big write off on taxes. I also know that there is a votech for electronics repair and they will take used stuff thats donated for parts and to try to fix it for credits... thats in Minnesota though

Answer 3

These guys are on the mark. See what kind of value they retain and see if its worth fixin or just donate them.

buy the way... what kind are they?
