Tonar has had aftermarket cartridges, there is some new old stock here and there.
Retipping means mounting a new diamond on a needle(cantilever), there are different kinds of diamonds that can be mounted. The needle, wich is called a cantilever can also be replaced.
The SP type cartridges are cheaper then the MMC type cartridges.
FJS in Germany retipped my SP cartridge, he said it had a lifespan of around 2000hrs, the cheaper ones a lot shorter.
