Sound-Smith retip time frame??

I sent out my Lyra cartridge for a retip on January 25th. Left a message inquiring about the forgotten cart. Anyone else ever have a lengthy wait for their prized cart with Sound-Smith? Is this a busy time of year for tip replacements? Similar to spring cleaning? Thanks, Brian

The Soundsmith does excellent work. I have been to their facility and it is a good sized, well staffed, quality shop. They have refurbished a number of vintage receivers for me. Like CMK commented, they will contact them, you don't have to chase them.

In my case it was 6 weeks, but that was early last fall. They are probably very busy and sometimes travel to demo the strain gauge system they make. Peter told me they would not rush the job so rest assured your Lyra will be done right.
