Turntables — J.Sikora INITIAL MAX WHITE

The Initial Max White is a white-finished J.Sikora deck that combines belt drive with a Delrin platter. In the J.Sikora range it sits alongside the Initial Max Line and below the Standard Line.

Key specs that matter

You can choose between 33 and 45 rpm. A DC motor drives the Delrin platter via a belt. With a footprint of 620 x 350 x 296 mm and a weight of 51 kg, the Max version is considerably bigger and heavier than the basic Initial Line.

Engineering and use context

No tonearm or cartridge comes specified with it, so this white deck is the base onto which an arm and pickup are fitted.

Pairing

Arm and cartridge are selected separately, and J.Sikora offers its own KV9 and KV12 tonearm families for the deck.

Alternatives

The Initial Line is the smaller and lighter J.Sikora turntable that sits below this model.
