SoundSmith cartridges how good?

@oldears 

I hope that’s cause he’s working on my Hyperion cart.  I was told 3 months at a minimum.  

My only experience with SoundSmith was a disappointment. I sent in a Denon DL-103 for an upgraded stylus. When I mounted it the stylus fell out. I did not touch it, or cause anything to make that happen. I wrote to SS explaining what happened, and they never responded. So, that was money down the drain, and a blacklisting for SS in my book.

You should have called and talked to Peter. If they were at fault, I’m sure Peter would have taken care of it. May have also offered a partial refund on the previous repair.

What you describe is very rare from all I know about Peter and his crew.

Thoughts and prayers to Peter for a recovery.  One of the true gentlemen of our hoppy/pursuit and he makes a fine cartridge (I have three).

Oh man. Not good. Fight Peter fight.
