kcc123 Posted July 3, 2011 Share Posted July 3, 2011 I have quite a few cartridges, roughly sixty in total, including MIs, MMs, MCs and a strain gauge. It’s no point for me to list every one of them; however, here are some photos of part of my collection: Denon DL103R DL103R in an aluminum body DL 103D DL 103 DL303 DL304 I also have a DL110 and DL301 as well.

Bunyip Posted July 3, 2011 Share Posted July 3, 2011 (edited) @kc33 - great collection and great shots! Plase post more and like heman said, shots of the tables would be nice as well. In fact, why stop there - I wanna see your whole system! Actually, I just realized I've seen one of these shots before. And it ended up on the cover of one of my compilation CDs which I like to make. This one: Hope you don't mind that I did that! Edited July 3, 2011 by Bunyip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davidsss Posted July 4, 2011 Share Posted July 4, 2011 Supex 900 Super Supex 1000 Hmm, nice Supexes. Where does one get one of these retipped? DS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kcc123 Posted July 4, 2011 Share Posted July 4, 2011 (edited) Hi DS, I think the nearest retipper to you should be the Garrott Brothers; however, you have to pay for an inspection fee of A$40 before they carry out the job, though it will be reimbursed later. If you don’t mind sending it away, then Expert Stylus Company in UK and Soundsmith in US are both recommended. The stylus that Soundsmith offer is very durable and will last for ages; unfortunately, I cannot say the same thing to the stylus retipped by Garrett Brothers in my experience.

Valuable info, thanks kcc. I have a Supex 1000 that sounds fine but, now that I have a good spare cartridge, I was thinking of getting it inspected and re-tipped if necessary.

Warren M. Posted July 5, 2011 Share Posted July 5, 2011 No photos for now - I have two cartridges which have been sent off to Soundsmith in the US for new ruby cantilevers and optimum contour contact line diamonds (the best that Soundsmith offer) - one is a Shelter 501 Mk2 (it will be very interesting to find out how it compares to my current standard Shelter 501 Mk2) - the other is my long dis-cantilevered Monster Cable ?-Genesis 1000, the hand-tuned precursor to the ZYX R-100 - I've written to Hisayoshi Nakatsuka (don't know if I will get a response) asking him if he thinks a Soundsmith ruby cantilever + OC-CL stylus would be an OK match for his ?-Genesis 1000 (it originally had a hollow aluminium-dust-coated boron cantilever and shibata stylus, so the Soundsmith top-of-line offering is not necessarily better than the original, but hopefully in the same league). So, in 3 months I get to test 3 cartridges against each other and decide which I keep and which I sell. THEN, I'll post the photos. Cheers, Warren Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, I've heard varying things about the Garrott Bros. Might contact Expert Stylus when the funds allow. Then again, the Blue Angel still probably has at least a year left (I reckon on about 3 to 4 years before they need retipping, what do others find?). I should also be able to get the Blue Angel retipped by the maker. But, would like to have the Supex looked at and renovated. DS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
