Setting Up the Tonearm
To mount the
KV12
or
KV-12-VTA
on any J.Sikora turntable
, you won’t need any
additional accessories. For
the J.Sikora
Initial
,
Initial MAX
,
Standard
, and
Standard MAX
turntables, the Tonearm will fit in the Universal
Armboard without needing any adapters (see the manuals for those tables for more details). For the J.Sikora
Reference
turntable, you will need to order an Arm Tower with a J.Sikora.
When mounting a J.Sikora Tonearm on
another manufacturer’s
turntable, you will need the Armboard cut
for a “Kuzma™” pattern. In terms of height, th
e clearance between the top edge of the platter and the
tonearm mounting base should be a minimum of 50mm.
