Have you heard a VAS cartridge?


VAS offers wonderful re-tipping services for our cartridges.  The reviews of Steve's retipping services are great all around.  I've used him twice and love his work, efficiency, pricing, detail, videos...everything about the vendor. 

What about VAS's own cartridges for sale?   They appear to be super modded Denons.  I'm very curious to learn what first hand experience folks have had with them.

I have one. Steve sent it to me after I had purchased another cartridge- an old Monster- that he had retipped. I generally use high-line cartridges in my main system and this was intended for my vintage system. I wrote about it here:

Beyond that, Steve has been a joy to work with-- he's fast, relatively cheap and responsive. I know Peter L. and have used him, and have also done "factory" re-do's. 

I know somebody that bought a fairly expensive Koetsu stone that had a misaligned cantilever. Steve realigned things, don't remember if he installed a new stylus, but he is capable of doing refined work, not just chopping off the old cantilever and mounting a pre-fab cantilever stylus. There are a lot of people who do good work all over the world. Steve is among them.
