Brand new retip (have not played - play tested by Soundsmith for quality control). Sent cartridge in for retip - waited more than 18 weeks to receive it, and had already purchased a new cartridge by then - which is why I’m selling.

Soundsmith’s Ruby OCL (optimized contact line) is the highest caliber retip job Soundsmith offers. It captures an extreme level of detail that moves the original Denon 103-R into a league thousands of dollars in quality above its weight.

Retip cost USD$400 and original OEM cartridge was USD$399

Comes included with the original box, brush, papers and a free Denon Aluminum Body Cap (purchased from https://www.denonaluminumbody.com).
