Waaaah. Snapped off my cantilever.


Today I bumped the needle of my Dynavector XX-2 MkII, it's a big bucks cartridge for me, I've only had it about six months, and 2 of those months I couldn't use it because my pre-amp was in for re-tubing.

Makes me understand why some stick with CD's/Downloads and solid state equipment.

Looks like Soundsmith is the way to go to repair it, but please do chime in if you have any other recommendations. Thanks.

My experience with Dynavector is that their top of the line cartridges get a full rebuild, they do not do retips. New generators, everything. If you have a top Dynavector and it is more than 2 years old, then I would recommend factory retip ( which should mean new cartridge/old body ). My advice is check with the distributor what the rebuild actually consists of.
