Retip Transfiguration Orpheus


Hi guys,

what would you think is the best way to re tip einTransfiguration Orpheus? Original is a Ogura PA (about 3x30) were used. I plan to have possible close to the original. Has anyone done this time? Smith Sound, Expert Stylus, other possibilities?
At Transfiguration Retipping one for an Orpheus is no longer possible!

Greetings ... Gerhard

My experience is similar to Gerhad's.A while ago the cleaning lady's cloth snagged the cantilever of my Orpheus. Thanks to some good Japanese friends I sent the Orpheus to the Transfiguration factory in Japan. They,however, politely declined to do a retip/repair etc citing the non availability of parts on a small scale etc
I am happy with the replacement cart, a Lyra Titan i, but I reckon the Orpheus was a better cart in the context of my system/musical preferences.
A successor to the Orpheus is on the anvil and I was advised that an accomodation price may be possible in this situation.
All the best
