Soundsmith Optimized Contour Contact Line Stylus for Rebuild


I am having a cartridge, a Lyra Clavis DC "rebuilt" by Soundsmith.  I am considering a Soundsmith Optimized Line Contour Contact Line stylus on a ruby cantilever.  I'm asking for opinions of those who have used this stylus, the pro's and con's of the rebuild and whether it changed to sonic balance of the cartridge.  I guess I'm asking opinions on the success of the upgrade and whether the rebuild met or exceeded expectations.  I haven't made the final commitment, but the cartridge is in the hands of Soundsmith now.

Peter has done two for me Line contact ruby on a Alpha Genisis 1000
years ago and recently a self modded Denon 103R.  The improvement on the Denon was incredible.  I have been looking to find a replacement for the Alpha since the suspension finally let go. I miss this cartridge.
