@scm FWIW I have used Soundsmith in the past but the last two jobs have been done by VAS. Steve worked on my ZYX Airy3 which I bought used. Suspension needed work and there was corrosion on the coil and cantilever. The corrosion issue was later verified by the seller who said it was in storage and noticed mildew in the area. Turnaround was 4 weeks in April of 2019. More recently he worked on my Dyanvector XV-1s. I thought it was due for a retip but it needed a cleaning, polishing and some suspension work. Turn around this time was 10 weeks beginning in Feb of this year. He says his backlog is only getting longer.
