[IMGP0924] Marantz showed off what was possibly it's most intriguing product of the show, the TT-15S1 - a $1500 (tentative price) analog turntable. It looked absolutely stunning and featured a milk white acrylic frame which should match well with Marantz's PM-11S1 flagship stereo integrated amplifier and SA-11S1 SACD player. Sporting a 20mm thick acrylic chassis and 28mm thick acrylic turntable, the TT-15S1 looks like an antique that was recreated using 21st century technology and materials (oh, wait - that's exactly what it is ).
