First of all, anyone who says anything blows the doors off of anything else, be it cables, amps, speakers, etc. should be immediately dismissed. I know anytime I read one of those junior high remarks such as "ABC just smoked my old XYZ", I immediately know it was written by someone with almost no experience and/or someone with an alterior motive (sales).
Second, I do agree with you that anytime someone makes a suggestion, again be it cables or gear, they should do their best to share their system and musical bias'. As someone who has been reading audio liturature (threads, mags, blogs) for several decades, I can usually sniff it out and decide whether the recommendation would help me or not. A newbie may not be able to read through the haze though. Not that people mis-lead others on purpose, but most don't understand synergy very well. IMHO, system building is all about synergy. For example, with the proper associated equipment, I can make just about any cable, amp, speaker, etc. sound very good. It's not a matter of what is the best cable or amp, it's a matter of what will sound best to me, in my system.
Sometimes, if I know what direction the person wants to go in, I may recommend stuff that did not work for me, but they may be travelling in a different direction than I am. There are many, many paths that lead to sonic nirvana and most of us arrive there by traveling different paths.
So knowing ones path when making a recommendation should add more weight than just a blank reco, I would think. At least for me it would.
