All parts are in excellent, one-owner, no-smoke environment condition since new. The color is matt black. It has a OEM Plate Glass platter with felt matt. No manual, no dust cover. 110V Power supply and cable.

Just added a video in which the arm (mounted with a Denon 103 CL) is being set up on a Thorens TD-124 for a brief listening test. This is a temporary, make-do installation in that the arm is glued to the armboard of the Thorens TD-124 with blue-tack only. Overhang has not been adjusted, nor have the vertical tracking angle (VTA) and the raising/lowering mechanism (which will have a smooth and slow action when properly adjusted). Still the arm works perfectly fine and sounds great to my ears. (Please note that the Denon 103 CL and the Thorens TD-124 are NOT part of this sale.) This Triplanar Wheaton tonearm was used by me for about 15 years before it was retired in the 2000s. In 2012, I sent it back to Triplanar for a complete overhaul and upgrade (from MK II to MK III). Please see Photo 18 for a complete list of the work done to the arm by Triplanar. Since then, I have gone into vintage audio, so this tonearm has not been used after refurbishment. This is a unique and excellent-sounding tonearm. To quote Triplanar: The unique dual-pivot design of this precision tonearm provides unrivaled tracking, transparency, and resolution. The arm creates a musical sound stage unmatched by any other. It has been described as powerful and dynamic, solid yet expressive, delicate and tactile. The outstanding quality of this arm, commented on time and again, is that it is invisible, lacking the colorations that plague so many of our competitors. The arm was stored properly and, as you can see from the 22 photos, it is in excellent condition. It is complete with all the factory accessories provided by Triplanar, and it is still packed in the original Triplanar box. The comprehensive manual (see photos 20-21) provided by Triplanar will take you through every step to set up this arm properly. This arm will be shipped in the Triplanar box shown in the photos. Shipping worldwide by SpeedPost (express) from Hong Kong is US$108. Shipping to places closer to Hong Kong may be cheaper -- please ask. Questions welcome. More photos can be sent upon request.
