I have been sending my Koetsus to Van den Hul for decades.
I lived in NYC for 45 years, and have been living in the Hudson Valley for 3, and though I am now minutes from Soundsmith, he is not cheap, in fact he is far more expensive than sending it overseas including shipping. And I find him difficult to work with.
Is anybody in a position to compare the quality of Steve's work to Van den Hul's?
Has anybody sent a Koetsu to Steve, and is able to describe the change in the sound characteristics, if any, before and after repair?
Thank you all in advance.
