Good, but bass light
It's light, comfortable and sounds fine, yet bass light.

Convenient
Just not much of an actual improvement over the original bearing

Bringing back to life a dead cartridge
2 of 2 found this helpful Had my broken DL-103r re-tipped after a broken cantilever accident and I'm very happy with it.
Job was done very professionally, everything is straight (you'll be surprised...), balanced, cleaned and to speck. The diamond is of good quality, and as expected for the price.
It was also done quickly, and communication and advice was great.
Just had it compared with a regular 103r:
a) Compliance is the same - which is important to know. Both the regular and the re-tipped cartridges resonance on a Lenco arm at a good 8.5 Hz, putting the compliance at 10-11 Cu (at 10Hz).
b) Sonically, it's a changed beast - the cart lost some of it's full-bodied warmth, and got a distinctive gain in details and sound-stage. Still musical and easy on the ear.
would I do it again with a broken/worned cartridge? - certainly - got back an somewhat improved cart, in place of a destroyed one, for a VERY good price.
Would I re-tipped a good/new cartridge - That's probably a "no". If some more details, as a trade off for some warmth is what I'm looking for - I'll choose another cart from start.
Thanks from a happy customer!
