Hello there. I am about to make a decision for my next cart to match my system as follows : A90 Cart > SME V arm > Oracle Delphi VI TT > Cardas GR cables & Transparent Ref Speaker Cable > MIT oracle power chords > Avid Pulsare Phonostage > Modwright LS36.5 Dual Mono Preamp > Pass Labs XA 100.5 monoblock > Dynaudio Evidence Temptation > Shunyata Hydra Line Conditioner. Room size is 5.0 x 6.0 mts. My system is quite revealing and prefers a bit warmer tone but with dynamics and details and of course a realistic soundstage. Suggestions are highly appreciated.

Manila does have a postal service. You could always mail your arm to a qualified SME rewire expert. This would be th first thing that "I" would do before investing in a $$$ cartridge.

Some time ago I read something about rewiring SME Arms and that the
Factory offers that Service (their wire or what you supply) .... maybe you
can ask a Dealer about it.

If Dertonarm is willing to do the re-wire for you than you can get the Takeda silver wire. You can write to me if interested and I will ask Dertonarm for you.

Dream, there is a whole crew of pretty serious audio guys in Manila. They post on the What's Best Forum. You can reach out to them there for local help on rewiring, and avoid shipping issues. They are very nice guys and seem to be quite facile in what they do, lot's of DIY, too. I have no financial interest, just trying to make your life easier.

Syntax is correct. SME in Sussex (England) does rewiring for its tonearms. At one time I had them rewire my IV.Vi arm, and they did an absolutely first class job. The man to reach at SME is Brian Laker, a very decent fellow. He will answer all your questions regarding re-wiring.
