RE: Question On Retipping. Hey "Retipper", you might want to chime in...

Well, I certainly can address this one!

I had my Ortofon Kontrapunkt A retipped by Sound Smith about 5 or six years ago- that included replacing the original with the ruby cantilever that they use.

The second retip (about three years ago) was just that- replaced ONLY the stylus.

Third time (I just it back last week) and I had them redo the cantilever and stylus. This time, there appears to be some sort of collar near the "innards". I'm sure they have a reason for it (did they have to cut the old ruby cantilever? was something amiss that they didn't tell me about?). Maybe Retipper (aka Peter Ledermann) might chime it...
