Does anyone repair Lyra cartridges?

I have a low hours Lyra Lydian Beta with a loose cantilever. It is not bent and the stylus looks perfect. The stylus spins from side to side. Is there anyone who will work on this?

By going the route of Soundsmith for retipping, I'm concerned if the retip will improve or alter the basic chararcteristics of the Helicon? Any advice?

I am not demeaning Soundsmith, but I suspect the unit will be different...maybe better, maybe not, however, you can be sure it wont be a Lyra. I always bring my cars into the dealer to be sure I still have the same engineering as I originally purchased.

Strange... Any Lyra owners who have their carts retipped by Soundsmith would like to comment?
