Features & Specs Line Circle

Reference manual belt-drive design (33 1/3 & 45 rpm)
Built for listeners who prioritize sound quality and mechanical simplicity, with support for the two most common record speeds.
High-density acrylic chassis and platter for low resonance
Acrylic construction helps minimize unwanted vibration and coloration, letting your cartridge retrieve more detail and texture from the groove.
Isolated “floating” motor mount construction
By keeping the motor from directly coupling to the chassis, the TT-15S1 reduces vibration reaching the stylus for cleaner imaging and quieter playback.
Endless silicone belt drive for stable timing
The belt-drive system is designed to rotate smoothly and consistently, helping preserve pitch accuracy and musical pacing.
Clearaudio moving-magnet cartridge included
A high-quality MM cartridge is pre-selected to match the table’s performance goals, delivering a refined, articulate sound without needing immediate upgrades.
Precision tonearm adjustability
Fine counterweight control, magnetic anti-skating, and a wide tracking force adjustment range make it easy to optimize performance for the included cartridge or future compatible options.

Marantz TT-15S1 Reference Belt Drive Turntable with Cartridge

The Marantz TT-15S1 is a true reference-grade, manual belt-drive turntable built for listeners who want vinyl to sound spacious, precise, and effortlessly natural. Its high-density acrylic chassis and acrylic platter create an ultra-low-resonance foundation, while the isolated “floating” motor design helps keep vibration away from the stylus for cleaner transients and quieter backgrounds. Marantz pairs that platform with a finely adjustable, anodized aluminum straight tonearm and a premium Clearaudio moving-magnet cartridge, so you can get genuinely audiophile performance right out of the box. With support for 33 1/3 and 45 rpm playback, a silicone belt drive for stable speed, and a high-quality record clamp, the TT-15S1 is engineered to let your best pressings sound bold, detailed, and beautifully composed. The Marantz TT-15S1 is part of ListenUp's Marantz Turntables Collection.

Marantz TT-15S1 Q&A:

Does the Marantz TT-15S1 have a built-in phono preamp?
No. The TT-15S1 outputs a standard phono signal, so you’ll need a phono preamp (or an amplifier/receiver with a PHONO input) to play it through most systems.
What speeds does the TT-15S1 support?
It supports both 33 1/3 rpm and 45 rpm playback for LPs and singles (an adapter is needed for 45 rpm records with large center holes).
Is the cartridge included, or do I need to buy one separately?
A premium Clearaudio moving-magnet cartridge is included, so you can set up and start listening without shopping for a cartridge first.
Is this turntable fully automatic?
No—this is a manual turntable, designed for maximum performance and simplicity with hands-on cueing and operation.
How does the TT-15S1 help reduce vibration and noise?
It combines a low-resonance acrylic chassis/platter with an isolated “floating” motor design to keep vibration away from the stylus and improve clarity.
Can I adjust tracking force and anti-skate?
Yes. The TT-15S1 includes a finely adjustable counterweight and magnetic anti-skating so you can dial in tracking for optimal performance.
Can I use a different cartridge later?
Yes, as long as it falls within the compatible cartridge weight range (3–18 g, excluding the head shell) and is set up correctly.
What’s the purpose of the included record clamp?
The included “Clever Clamp” helps improve record contact and can be especially useful when playing slightly warped records or when playing without a turntable mat/sheet.
