    Thanks Barry for that excellent bit of information.
    The S-15 T was my father's, And it isn't going to be sold - but thats good advice
    I have an initial positive response from CallaMighty of France i think, and await a detailed proposal.
    This sounded positive "We do really appreciate the Ortofon SL-15 and we do modify them in order to make them even greater performers"

    I would love to get it working again.

    I also have MC15 super II and the SL15Q which re in good general condition but i have not dared try them in case the styli may be damaged.

    Cheers Shahrin,

    Thanks for that - I pulled the trigger on it, so await with interest the results of retipping by Van den Hul of your S15T. I think though, I would prefer to go for a conventional elliptical stylus profile, as that would be more approprate to the age of the design.
