This is very much on my radar now, my DV XX2 MkII is perfectly fine, but with a Grado Aeon3 and Koetsu Urushi Wajimi to compete with in my stable it doesn't get much use, so a retip ala what the OP did might be the ticket. Thanks!
Miracle by Joseph long on Dynavector XX2MKII cartridge
A couple of days ago, I got my Dynavector XX2MKII back from Joseph Long after he put a new cantilever and stylus on it. It has blown me away, it sounds better than it has ever sounded, and has blown away my Kometsu Vermilion cartridge. I'm thinking it may be the best sounding cartridge I've ever heard, but don't get m
e wrong, I haven't heard that many great cartridges, but to my mind, this is one of them.
Joseph long's work is heartily recommended after my experience in this matter.
Regards,
Dan
