Any experience with or opinions about VAS/Steven Leung repair/retipping service?  Not for VAS cartridge.

Thanks!

I have a Benz REF with sagging cantilever.  Since Benz has become pretty much unobtanium(at least in US), I was looking for options for repair/trade.  I saw Harry Weisfield's  reviews of Steve's work on a VPI thread(Steve is a neighbor of VPI).  As a test, I decided to send my Denon 103R to him for modification.  He removed the body, mounted it on a stainless steel plate and added an aluminum cantilever and line contact stylus.  It sounds nearly as good as the REF (at 4-5 times the price).  I had an accident, bent the cantilever; he fixed it and had it back to me in a week!  He has my Benz now, and I am looking forward to what he can do with it.  Highly recommended!
