Troubles with Sound-Smith return communications?
I just read that this gentleman said "minor repairs", NO SO. This is a 4 year old table, and it needed everything (and more) that a B&O 4002 needs - which is sunbstantial.Again, I see from the date of his note here that he is NOT getting MY re...

I have reposnded to this gentleman - but he does not seem to answer my return calls. I will try again today. His B&O 4002, which needed unusual obsolete parts, is all but done and has one remaining intermittent problem, which I am determiend t...

Anyone Heard the New Soundsmith Sussurro Cartridge
RAUL; Identify yourself as a MANUFACTURER, and regarding a response about anyone else's product, DON'T GO THERE - have some sense this time, just for once.

Dear Raul; I cant read anymore of your posts. Also, the sign off "Regards and enjoy the music"is like a diet soda bad aftertaste, and the music now sounds more off-key, not nearly as clear, and nowhere as much fun. Thanks for taking the joy out of...
