It's on the higher end of my price range (like the cap) but with that new info on the cart it might jump to the top...Other than it being beautiful and me being a bit Marantz fan.

It came with the ClearAudio Virtuoso Wood cart. That cart alone goes for $1,000 and it was included free with the TT-15. I think it blows his old Music Hall MMF-5 out of the water. The difference in sound quality is staggering. The MMF-5 had a Sumiko cart on it, but I don't remember the model.

Music Direct includes the Virtuoso Wood cart for free with the order.
 
Also they have a dust cover for $300! Fricking nuts man! I could make one for 1/8 of that price.

You're forgetting radiation proof, air tight, self-sterilizing, earthquake proof, and 'hufterproof' (Dutch word, means safe from vandalism).

You don't want your records to be safe from any harm. Even the slightest dust particle might change the sound signature!

worked on this little guy earlier i picked up few days ago:

IMG_20120311_105731.jpg



the top picture is inside the 1980's H/K 770 power amp. dual-mono and completely discrete with two large Toroidal transformers for left and right channel. direct coupled. the preamp(bottom peice) is completely discrete as well. testing the SA5000 off the speaker outputs of the power amp(i always run headphones off of speaker outputs). this guy might be small but packing some serious punch and able to easily double it's output power with extra dynamic headroom to spare.
