If you're passionate about music, check out the Marantz SA-15S2. Marantz designed this Super Audio CD player for uncompromising, high-fidelity music reproduction, like their other Reference Series components. It combines the latest in circuit design, carefully selected internal components, and precision craftsmanship to deliver high-quality stereo sound that's sure to please even the most discerning listener.
Designed and built for the audio connoisseur
This player's hefty chassis and double-layered bottom plate create an incredibly stable platform for the disc tray, virtually eliminating vibrations that can interfere with the laser's tracking and ensuring reliable playback. A beefy, double-shielded toroidal power supply delivers a constant stream of clean current. The SA-15S2's low-noise LCD display emits no radiation into the audio signal path. The ear-pleasing end result is lively, true-to-life reproduction of all your favorite tunes.
A sophisticated digital-to-analog converter handles the fine detail contained on high-resolution SACDs. It can even help you rediscover some of the forgotten gems in your standard CD collection by revealing subtle nuances that you may never have noticed. The SA-15S2 can also play home-burned CDs and those loaded with MP3 and WMA files, so you'll enjoy clear, precise sound from every disc in your library.
Versatile connections for your hi-fi stereo system
This player's machined brass RCA stereo outputs are widely spaced so you can easily connect high-quality patch cords. You also get optical and coaxial digital outputs for CD playback. When using the analog connections, you can disable the digital outputs so there's no chance of stray emissions impacting the analog circuitry. The SA-15S2 also gives you an optical digital input, letting you take advantage of this player's high-end digital-to-analog converter with another digital source component, such as a DVD player or high-definition game console.
In addition to being a great-sounding player, the SA-15S2 looks great, too its smooth lines and champagne gold finish make it an attractive addition to just about any décor.
