I had the Marantz about three years ago. It was very good but I had a cartridge mishap and it soured me so I sold it...only to buy a Rega RP6 a year later. Looking back the real reason I sold it was its white and all my components are black, damn OCD! Anyhoo the Marantz holds it own.
Marantz TT15S1 Turntable. Any opinions 1500.00 Budget. Recommendations
I need a new turntable and looked at Rega, Pro-Ject and Music Hall. Those are all tables I can buy locally. Looking at Clear Audio but would have to be ordered. I saw a review of the Marantz turntable and see that it was designed but Clear Audio and has a 700-800 cartridge that comes with it. Trying to keep my budget at about 1500.00. Anybody have one of these that could give me an opinion? Any other recommendations in that price range with cartridge? Not opposed to used. Will be playing it through a Luxman 505U integrated. Thanks for any help.
