What do you do when someone asks you for advice and then disregards it? Or worse, is the type who asks for advice from twenty people and then never does anything.
Case in point. A person I know recently asked my opinion about an older preamplifier and should he buy it? I told him to save his money because the piece always sounded bright and solid-statish to me. World famous reviewer tells him the only problem with the preamplifier is the capacitors and if he changes out the parts the unit is world class and incredibly three-dimensional. Upshot, this person buys the unit, changes the caps and then complains to me that the unit is unlistenable and has zero dimensionality. Ughhh....
