Marantz TT-15 Turntable with Clearaudio Virtuoso Wood MM Cartridge plus MoFi Accessories from Music Direct Sweepstakes
According to Music Direct:
This turntable package will also come with a handful of new Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab LPs, a Mobile Fidelity Record Brush and Mobile Fidelity Record Care Fluids. Music Direct will even throw in a custom made dustcover. This special package has an estimated value of over $2,000. Howís that for a holiday give-away?Marantz really killed the competition with their complete turntable package, the Marantz TT-15. Designed by Marantz and built for them by Clearaudio, the TT-15 is a contoured acrylic table with an outboard motor, a very thick, inert acrylic platter on an inverted bearing, with special anti-resonance isolation feet and a sophisticated tonearm with an anodized Aluminum armwand. To make this analog package an even better value, the TT-15 comes complete with the fantastic Clearaudio Virtuoso Ebony Wood Cartridge; one of the best sounding MM cartridges we sell! We fell in love at first sight...and at first listen, we were even more impressed.
AnalogPlanet.com's esteemed Editor-In-Chief Michael Fremer enjoyed his time with this table. In his Stereophile review he wrote about his time with the table. Good luck to all the Analog Planet readers.

This would be great for my daughter who has hinted she wants a turntable for when she goes away to college.
Gorgeous.

My daughter is in need of one. She caught the vinyl bug!!
and I am in. :)
If you read the fine print sweapstakes are for U.S resident's only. Pity. International shipping is common these day... I'm sure winners outside the U.S would be happy to pay shipping costs. Maybe this could be made clearer in the main post?
I always could use a new turntable. Hopefully this time the luck is with me.
I've GOT to have it!!
would be great upgrade for me!

Sweet turntable
Bet this wood sound great through my Marantz 2216B phono stage.
Count me in! Crazy good stuff.
my current turntable runs too slow and the speakers keep going out. it's also the size of a buick, so not that easy to take to get fixed. this one, however, looks like a beauty!
Or;
Oh! oh! oh! pick me!
Still need to replace my 26 year old vinyl spinner
A turntable upgrade for the holidays sounds great!
I love this blog - both for the content and the contests! I've read so much about this turntable. I'd love to be able to spin my own vinyl on it!
But either way it's great someone will get a wonderful turntable!
Another great contest. Nice looking turntable.

thank you
I really like the clean looks of this table and I liked the sound when I heard one. Put it under my tree, please.
impressive
God help me!
It is a beauty. I believe it is based on a Clearaudio design (Emotion). No doubt it sounds as good as it looks.
When using a high-end turntable, you are not just listening to the music; you are connected to the music.
I always wanted a true high end turntable. Thanks for the chance to win one!
That'd be nice.
Pick me!
Bet it sounds as good as it looks.

yes please
I want it!
I'm in. Good luck to all.
I will be getting a new TT in 2013, probably my last one. I have been looking at so many tables lately, that it is hard to believe that if this vinly format were not "dead" that I would have such a huge assortment and any price point I wanted that it would take forever to wade through them all. OH, wait, it does. alll one has to do is go to NeedleDoctor.com, AcousticSounds.com, MusicDirect,com and see how "un-dead" vinyl is today. It is remarkable.
As I look at all the options I always come back to this Marantz table, even knowing they did not manufacture it, but did a super job in marketing it and with the ClearAudio Cart premounted made it one of the best values in all of TT land.
To win this one would be sweet, but right now this Marantz TT15 is on my list along with a VPI Traveler, Rega RP-6, a Thorens 309, Sota Satellite with a Rega Arm, Project 2 Xperience, or the new retro Merrill AR remake table with a Rega Arm. All in the same price ballpark wise and none would be a mistake to own. I doubt that I would even be pleased with a Project Debut Carbon with the Ortofon Red and wonder how they can market such a great bargain in 2012. What a great time to be into vinyl, and to never have left.
Missed the traveler would love to win this one
Sold it cheap and gave away my vinyl when cd's arrived. Idiot! Started all over a couple of years ago so this would be great to have.
wish me luck
I want it so bad!!!!!!!!!!
