Basic Specifications

Specification Note: Specifications are based on available Marantz service documentation. Please refer to the rear label and product photos for the exact voltage, serial number, connections, and configuration of this unit.

Sound Character

The Marantz 2015 offers the smooth, warm, and musical presentation associated with classic Marantz receivers.

Its 15-watt-per-channel amplifier section is best suited to efficient speakers and normal home-listening levels. Bass is rounded and natural, while the midrange gives vocals, guitars, piano, and acoustic instruments a pleasant sense of body.

High frequencies are relaxed and non-fatiguing, making the receiver comfortable for extended listening sessions. Its built-in phono stage also allows a compatible moving-magnet turntable to connect directly without requiring a separate phono preamplifier.

The Marantz 2015 is particularly enjoyable with jazz, vocals, acoustic music, classic rock, blues, soul, vinyl playback, FM radio, and smaller vintage speaker systems.
