Overview

Kirschbaum Max Power provides big hitters with the control needed to achieve maximum acceleration. In other words, this string's low-powered response will allow players to take huge cuts at the ball when adding pace and spin. The feel is quite firm and the stringbed response is extremely predictable. A great option for any player who likes attacking the ball without having to worry about over-hitting.

Kirschbaum pre-stretches this string in order to improve tension maintenance and playability duration.

Comments: I love the simplicity of this string. It is a high quality basic, round stiff poly string. If you have the technique and fitness for this string, then you can unload your shots and get loads of spin. I personally have been scrapping the felt off of tennis balls. Highly recommended for the advanced player.

Comments: The secret to Max Power is dropping the tension by five pounds. This allows you to swing for the fences pain free with all of your shots staying within the lines.

Comments: Have been using Kirschbaum Pro Line II for a few years and really like them. Then I tried this, I might like this even better. It offers great control and a really nice feel. Using a full bed in a Pro Staff 97 Black at 52 pounds. This string complements the Pro Staff 97 very well, and you can really feel the Pro Staff 97 flexing when hitting hard. Great combination of power and control.

Comments: A nice stiff low powered string -- very, very similar to Lux ALU Power, but at a much lower price point. I use a full bed of this in my 2017 Pure Strike 16x19 (ProjectOne7) frame strung at 46 lbs. I am a big hitter off both sides (Babolat POP PIQ score of 8,000 give or take 50 points either way on a given day as a reference for you POP users) and this string provides excellent all court control and near (but not quite) the feel and ball pocketing of ALU power. Spin potential in a 16x19 frame is about average. The only downside so far, when this stuff has reached it's end life, it goes completely dead. Its not a gradual drop off either, it happens pretty abruptly. For me, this appears to kick in after 7-8 hours of heavy hitting. Other than that -- no complaints.

Comments: I am 59 years old and a 4.0 all court player. This is a very good poly. It is firm so string it lower. I like a crisp string bed and use it as a cross with a 16 g multi in the mains in a 98 square inch frame. I would not string this above 50 lbs. Control and spin are excellent. The TW string database also has good tension maintenance numbers for this string and it does last well for poly. I highly recommend it.

Comments: I'm a 45 year old male player. Strung Max Power 1.30 at 55 lbs in mains and 1.25 at 53 lbs in the crosses. Coming from stiff racquets, I now play with the Yonex Ai 98. From what I've read, I expected the MaxPower to be too stiff and very low powered. But I found these strings to have good power, not a single moment I felt it was low. Also I didn't find any stiffness at all. The Yonex is a flexy and comfy racquet, so that helps maybe. Also, the feel was good. With this racquet, if I wanted I could even have a stiffer and lower powered string. Control is good, but that's no surprise.
From:Sjoerd, 6/16

Comments: Great, great stuff. I wouldn't say these strings surpass ALU Power, but the difference is so negligible that I like these more given they cost 4 dollars less. The few differences come from the level of power and feel. Max Power isn't quite as good on the feel front, somewhat lacking touch (as expected for a poly), but still offering better feel than many other polys. Also, it's lower powered, which I like since I've started using it in a hybrid with multifilament mains. This hybrid paired with my Wilson ProStaff 97 (the non RF version) makes for an excellent combination. I love the spin, control, and ample feel that these strings supply, and I'll be using these as my go-to polyester string from now on.
