Third Party Services - Phono Cartridge - Retip - Refurbish - Rebuild Services.


A Thread to add a List and Links to show where Third Party Services are available to offer a Retip - Refurbish - Rebuild, as well as make known the Cart’s that have been returned as a successful remediation.

If there is any information known off, that is seemingly related to the subject, there seems to be no reason not to copy/paste the info to this Thread, as means to consolidate information that might prove useful to somebody showing an interest in using a Service that is not from the Cart's Manufacturer.

I have found the link for Torlai. 

I have never discussed guarantee for works undertaken, I have my own approach I used to set up a refurbishment on a Donor Cart'.

Torlai is making a statement that works carried out are guaranteed for 12 Months.

Another Service shown in the Link, stating a Year Long Warranty is offered as part of the works undertaken.

A consolidated list will be a useful reference as time goes by.

It will be good to learn how certain Services has helped and what work has been undertaken when receiving a Donor Cart'.

I once indirectly helped a Transfiguration Proteus owner have a Coil Rewind on a Cart' they were selling for a very fair price as non-working model. Instead of finalising the purchase and having a attractive Donor Cart'. I made it known to the vendor, where there may be assistance with a remediation.

All's well that ends well, the Cart' owner for a very fair repair/shipping price, received a working Cart and were very outwardly greatful for the support on offer. The usual story was told, the Cart' as a refurbishment was seemingly performing better that any recollection if it during a previous use could muster.
