Re: Shinon Red Re-tipping, possible and/or worthwhile?

Stu:
Your comment made me curious so I went through Audio's annual Directory mags from around 1990. They listed a Red Boron and Red Boron Signature, nothing simply called Red. You must be right that all in the Red series had boron cantilevers.

The two things that amaze me the most about mine are that it is still functional, and even more that it sounds as good as it does. I really don't know about the hours as it has been in and out of the system over the years. Naturally, I wonder about groove damage because of tip wear so I've had younger folks with better high frequency hearing than I do listen and no one can tell me of any sonic problem. So, I call it my EB (Energizer Bunny).
