I've used VDH retipped cartridges and some of them (a 'Podded' Decca Export comes to mind and a VDH tipped EMT model in the mid 80's) were staggeringly good. Not sure about the Goldring 12** series though away from a period Rega deck, but the Linn Adikt (a 1012GX in drag and double the price) sounds quite tame in comparison...
Sorry to Sh#t on this thread..

Not at all Dave, it’s interesting. I didn’t know the Adikt was a 1012in drag, FWIW if you have the cash, Rudi, you should try one, you’ve mentioned it for a long time. And you have a gorgeous SME V sat there waiting. It’s an itch you can scratch more dpsafely bu buying used though.
