I've been running 103R's for about 4-5 years now in various iterations: stock, rebodied (ebony and clavellin) with the stock cantilever and stylus, and rebodied (ebony and aluminum) with Soundsmith retips.
My experience is that the tone (or performance of the cartridge as it relates to tone) of the cartridge is not really altered but it's abilities to both retrieve more information and remain much more composed in really dense, complicated musical passages are both enhanced with the ruby cantilever and LC contact stylus (I have the midline $250 retip on mine) that Soundsmith installs.
