About the Max Nero
The Transrotor Max Nero is a manually operated high-end turntable built around a resonance-damping POM/steel chassis and a 7 kg POM platter. It is designed for flexibility, allowing up to two tonearms in 9-inch or 12-inch formats, and is commonly shown with a Rega RB 330 tonearm and Konstant Eins NERO power supply. The model emphasizes mechanical precision, upgradeability, and solid construction, with stainless-steel metal parts and an aluminum record clamp. Current distributor listings show it as an available product rather than a discontinued one.
