VAS (Steven Leung) cartridge repair/retipping service?

Steve recently did two Denon Dl-103 carts for me, one was a DL-103S that he retipped and the other was a DL-103 that he potted in a wood body I provided and installed a new cantilever and stylus. Excellent work for a very reasonable price.Plus he is only an hour from me!

Well, based on the very positive comments here, I sent my ZYX Airy 3 out to VAS today for an inspection and possible boron cantilever/microridge stylus combo.

please let us know how that works out for you.
I have nothing but high praise so far.

I have been sending my Koetsus to Van den Hul for decades.

I lived in NYC for 45 years, and have been living in the Hudson Valley for 3, and though I am now minutes from Soundsmith, he is not cheap, in fact he is far more expensive than sending it overseas including shipping. And I find him difficult to work with.

Is anybody in a position to compare the quality of Steve's work to Van den Hul's?

Has anybody sent a Koetsu to Steve, and is able to describe the change in the sound characteristics, if any, before and after repair?

Thank you all in advance.
