Instead of accepting analog audio as a thing of the past Marantz has used the advent of digital media as a higher bar that turntables must simply now meet. In pursuit of this goal lies the TT-15S1 ($1500). To get there, Marantz has used an AC servo, an endless silicon belt-drive system, and a low-coloration aluminum tone arm. It is also undeniably one of the best looking turntables you will lay eyes on for a long time to come.
