Why not have Soundsmith or one of the other services rebuild it for you.
I had them do a Sumiko Blue Point evo 3 with a broken cantilever and it sounded excellent. It's a lot cheaper than a new cartridge.
What Cartridge Manufacturers Will Retip Their Moving Coil Cartridges For A Fee?
What cartridge manufacturers will retip their moving coil cartridges for a fee?
I have a $3k Sumiko cartridge....Sumiko offers me $900 credit for my old cartridge towards the purchase of a new $3k Sumiko cartridge.
Next time I buy a new cartridge, I'd like to buy one from a manufacturer that will retip it for a fee. Do any manufacturers of moving coil cartridges do retipping?
