Have you heard a VAS cartridge?

I have NOT heard his cartridges, just ones with new cantilevers and tips.

I'm lucky, live only 35 minutes from him, I’ll listen to one he rebuilt completely on his system when I visit him soon.

I have heard two he re-tipped for my friend here in my system, and 2 he re-tipped for me in his system and my system

He has one done for me I need to pick up.

I trust what he says about his cartridges completely.

any prices on the  modded denon 103 ?   im also interested in the  denon 103 mono

Thank you What! You always provide excellent information and opinions.  Loved the article.  I'm likely going to bite the bullet and order one from Steve. 

VAS also have their Nova MC cartridges, which seem to be a different thing altogether from the 103-based ones.

I've been running the VAS Ebony 103 for quite some time. Never gets old, absolutely love the detail and warmth. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending it to anyone. Paid $510. Steve is very responsive to questions.
