RE: Another top 10 list - phono cartridges

Thanks Ron

I know of the retipping service and the place to go is to Van Den Hul since they have stocks of cantilever materials other than the new ruby and diamond sticks. I keep thinking the ruby is too stiff to have any self damping - which is an iffy idea for a cartridge carefully designed around another cantilever material.

In any case, the cost is $250 minimum, $500 at Van Den Hul - per pop.

How did the retip work out on your FR? Did you end up getting the same stylus shape? How did the sound characteristics change?
