Soundsmith does do retipping, although it's more expensive than replacing the cantilever/stylus assembly.
Would you use an Ortofon A90 on a Jelco tonearm?
Friends,
i sold my ART9 cartridge and now looking for an upgrade. I like Ortofon carts. I have been able to locate a low mileage A90 and a Per windfeld cartridge that I could afford. I don't have a top quality tonearm though. Would you put an A90 on a tonearm like Jelco 750d ? Or would you spend additional $1000 on a better tonearm and get a less exotic cart like the windfeld ?
