Sad to say it but you’ll have a hard time working with Needle Doctor (Minneapolis MN); the owner closed it last year due to poor health. I’m also pretty certain they didn’t do repairs or upgrades, just re-tip trade-ins. Perhaps you’re thinking of Soundsmith? They do re-tips and upgrades. Their boron/nude contact line diamond combo is $450.
FWIW, you might want to consider investing some extra $$$ and making a real upgrade. The Denon is a nice cartridge, but yours is rather old now and there are vastly superior carts out there brand new at the $900-$1200 price point.
Good luck and let us know what you decide to do.
