Dynavector retiped

Would it be better to buy a new cartridge or make a retiped of it. I would like to retiped and convert my DV20x2H into DV20x2L

I had my 10x5 retipped 6 years ago by Soundsmith. It improved the sound of the cart. I just upgraded to a used 20x Soundsmith retip, I never have heard the original, but this cart was a huge upgrade to the 10x5 retip.
