Inspired by the already legendary SC-7/MA-9 combination and derived from the top class PM-11S1 we are proud to present
thenew Marantz PM-15S1. Coupling impressive design with outstanding performance we feel our engineers have created a worthy
successor to the PM-17SA. The amplifier is built according to the new Marantz premium design without any visible screws,
a heavy double layer chassis and a slightly blue illuminated front. The 3-stage construction with full Current Feedback and with
short, symmetrical signal paths,independent left and right heatsinks, and new HDAM-SA2’s ensure dynamic sound and perfect
stereo imaging. Best components, reduction of external noise and other improvements further extend the quality. Derived from
the PM-11S1 we are using the electronic linear volume control WM8816 from Wolfson. The PM-15S1 reflects our engineers’
passion for pure music, designed with the true audiophile in mind.
