I broke my DV20x2H after about a year of listening to with a modified Rega tonearm. I was heartbroken because I really enjoyed it with my system. I sent to Soundsmith and had it retipped with the ruby cantalever arm ($250) option. When it came back, to my ears, the music seemed more alive and detailed. I like it better than the the original. After six months I bought a broken DV20X2h and sent it to have it retipped the same way and have it stored as my back up.
Sound Smith Retip of DV 20X2 Cartridge
Anyone use Sound Smith to retip their Dynavector 20X2 MC cartridge? In particular, I'm thinking about retipping with one of Peter's higher end ruby cantilever and stylus versions. Comments and reactions would be welcome.
My main carty is the SS VPI Zephyr, which is a fine sounding cartridge. The DV 20X2 is my back-up. I personally think the Zephyr is in a different league.
My TT is the VPI Classic and phono pre is the ARC PH-8.
