Retipping Service

Hey Guys,

The tip on my beloved Zyx Universe has broken off. I'm really missing my analog playback.

The stylus is still just fine. However, I would be tempted to have a diamond stylus, from a Sigma, dropped in. But, that's another dream of mine...

Where's a good place to get my Universe retipped? I've heard good things about Soundsmith. But, I tried contacting them a couple times, and haven't heard back. That was 1.5 months ago and not even sure they're still offering a retipping service.

What would you guys recommend?

-Brian

To start a Soundsmith new repair just click on the new repair tab. Its all online and works quite well. I have used them twice before. If you haven't done so you will need to register. Cheers

I 3rd the notion that Sound Smith does great work. But I was also interested in the service mentioned by Viridian above (see URL). The website is unrevealing as to what this guy does, however. Viridian, do you know what choices of cantilever and stylus shape are available? Anything about price?
