I suspect that any rebuild/retip will sound different even if done by the original manufacturer. Depending on what you have done with Soundsmith (change a saphire cantilever for a carbon fiber, etc.) There could be a great change. Whether that is a good or bad thing only you can decide after setup.
Soundsmith retips
I'd like to hear feedback from the analog gurus on this forum and about their experiences with the Soundsmith retips. Does it change the tonal balance and am looking for both pros and cons?
