Catridge needle bent


The stylus on my Benz Micro Wood SM cartridge is bent to the right a bit. The turntable suffered a fall off a shelf which caused this. I had the stylus examined under a microscope and the actual diamond tip is fine, but I'm wondering if there's any possible way to fix this. Is it possible to safely bent i back any way? If so, how? If not, is it safe to continue using it, and will it negatively affect the sound quality in any way?

Your cantilever is bent not the stylus,the cantilever is what the stylus is adhered to. Soundsmith can fix this I'm sure.
sorry for your loss, but it's ucked up. Sound-Smith can solve your problem for less vs. original retip at no compromise of performance.
Check with Peter Leddermann at Sound-Smith or Andy (Chong Kim. Both have very good reputations.
