Marantz TT-15S1 Reference Belt-Drive Turntable with Clearaudio Virtuoso Cartridge
Rediscover the Art of Vinyl Playback
The Marantz TT-15S1 is a beautifully engineered reference turntable designed for music lovers who appreciate the warmth, detail, and natural presentation of analog recordings.
Featuring a substantial acrylic chassis and platter, precision belt-drive system, isolated motor, and premium Clearaudio Virtuoso moving-magnet cartridge, the TT-15S1 delivers the kind of musical performance that makes listening to vinyl a truly rewarding experience.
Its elegant transparent-white acrylic design is as distinctive visually as it is sonically.
Engineered for Exceptional Analog Performance
High-Density Acrylic Chassis and Platter
The substantial acrylic construction minimizes unwanted resonance and provides a stable foundation for accurate record playback. Its approximately 30mm-thick platter contributes to smooth, consistent rotation.
Isolated Motor and Precision Belt Drive
A separately positioned motor helps prevent mechanical vibration from reaching the platter and cartridge. The continuous silicone drive belt provides smooth operation at both 33⅓ and 45 RPM.
Premium Clearaudio Virtuoso Cartridge Included
Unlike many high-performance turntables that require a separate cartridge purchase, the TT-15S1 includes a premium Clearaudio Virtuoso moving-magnet cartridge.
Its sophisticated design delivers excellent tracking, impressive detail retrieval, and a beautifully balanced musical presentation.
Precision Tonearm
The anodized aluminum tonearm features adjustable tracking force and magnetic anti-skating for precise cartridge alignment and consistent performance.
Clever Clamp Record Stabilization
The included Clever Clamp helps maintain consistent contact between the record and platter, improving playback stability.
Designed for the Serious Music Enthusiast
The TT-15S1 combines audiophile engineering with an understated, contemporary appearance. Its manual operation encourages a more personal connection with your music, while its carefully selected components provide outstanding performance without unnecessary complexity.
Whether you're rediscovering a cherished vinyl collection or building a dedicated two-channel listening system, the TT-15S1 makes an exceptional centerpiece.
