John Wood Audio, a tale of woe

In terms of a courier, I’d take the advice here of those who use them for hi-fi transporting purposes, as I don’t. Perhaps, Stewart, for example, could recommend one?

Cancer Research would indeed be a fine choice of charity. PM’ing you my addy now... :)

Marco.

well what would you lot do if "Orderd and paid for a new BMW and was sent a faulty use metro" Have some one fix it for free and be happy or demand the new BMW or a full refund with no more cost to you..
Simples..

Therefore ya fix it and sell it on and thus recoup some of your hard earned - Cot/nose/spite/face comes to mind... :ner:

Sigh, yet another example of the Court system being less than useless.
Geoffrey, I would not have handled this the way you did but you do not deserve criticism. In fact I think you should be applauded for this approach you are taking. It will put an end to what is truly a tale of woe, but equally important is that you gain a real satisfaction in knowing that some good has come of it.

The thing is Andrei it is obvious Mr Wood is going to fight this all the way, and it has got to the point now where Geoff has had to pose the the question; is chasing this guy further into the legal maze actually going to be productive? Personally I think Geoff would be wasting his time and potentially, his money. I was being critical because the obvious solution was staring Geoff in the face.

Anyway, it seems now that Geoff has accepted this and is willing to have the amp fixed so it can be sold with the proceeds going to charity, which I admit is a nice touch as long as it ends there...

I don't want the amplifier, whether repaired or not, it's a constant reminder of the whole unsavoury episode. I've fairly recently bought Glen Croft pre and power amplifiers, I also have a PrimaLuna Prologue 2 and a Harman Kardon HK990, all three are excellent. If you still doubt me Marco, give me your address and I'll pack the Wood amplifier up and arrange for a courier to deliver it to you, it will be yours to keep and do as you wish with it as I don't want the bloody thing.

So Geoff,

What do you think of the Crofts? :)

If Marco does not want it keep me in mind :D

I will give it a home and get it sorted ;)

Hi Geoff,

I cannot believe what I am reading.

Have you decided whether you want to escalate the matter further? If so, it looks like to me that you are about to give away the (main) piece of evidence to your case.
