SA-15S2 Limited

Super Audio CD/CD Player

w/digital input

For those driven by a search for the best in home music, the Marantz SA-15S2 Limited offers Reference

Series reproduction of all your treasured Compact Discs and Super Audio CDs. The Limited is infused with

audiophile-grade components, re-voiced for greater speed and harmonic balance, and boasts a gorgeous,

black anodized aluminum enclosure. A Marantz designed, linear power supply anchors this premium com-

ponent with an outsized torroidal transformer to provide the voltage stability and freedom from noise that

are necessary for the very best audio performance. An advanced transport mechanism employs resonance-

resistant Xyron (composite) components and is mounted to a heavyweight aluminum billet base. The SA-

15S2 Limited utilizes the superb Cirrus Logic CS4398 high-current DAC with 24-bit/192 kHz resolution for

music reproduction with the speed and immediacy of a live performance; selectable interpolation filters al-

low for a slight tailoring of the response to suit individual systems, while an optical input allows for the use

of external digital sources. Special audiophile-grade decoupling capacitors help deliver crisp, clean power to

these all-important DAC stages for enhanced transparency and a jet-black background. HDAM SA2 mod-

ules are utilized throughout the analog output stage for wide dynamic range and the best possible fidelity.

Audiophile-grade copper foil film capacitors and metallic film resistors are employed at critical points in the

topology to further enhance performance.
