wiring rec. for triplaner upgrade

A buddy of mine is sending his Triplaner arm in for an upgrade to a Mk VI. He is requesting info on cabling options. Any stong opinions out there?

I've A/B'd my arm against some other highly regarded ones, both in my system and in others. It's never failed to surprise those who were expecting less from it. P.S. If possible, upgrade all the way to the VII. Some of those who expected less own earlier versions themselves. They were among the most surprised.

Thom - your advice to ask the maker was exactly what I suggested to him. He's a little insecure and generally needs some "big name" reviewer to gush over something before he'll buy it.

Why it's 33% bigger than all the regular Toms! Too bad about your friend's insecurity. That approach usually gets about half the performance for twice the money.
