Audio-Technica AT-LP120XUSB-BK Direct-Drive Turntable (Analog & USB)

The Audio-Technica AT-LP120XUSB-BK is a versatile analog and USB direct-drive turntable that boasts a range of impressive features. Equipped with a DC servo direct-drive motor, this turntable offers selectable 33-1/3, 45, and 78 RPM playback, ensuring compatibility with a wide variety of vinyl records.

One of the standout features of this turntable is its USB output, which allows for direct connection to a computer. With the included free Audacity recording software (or any software of your choice), users can easily convert their vinyl records into high-quality digital audio files, preserving the rich, warm sound of analog.

In addition to the USB output, the turntable also comes with a detachable dual RCA output cable, enabling direct connection to a home stereo system, regardless of whether it has a dedicated phono input. This is made possible by the built-in selectable phono preamp, which ensures optimal audio quality without the need for additional external equipment.

The turntable's tonearm features an S-shaped design with adjustable tracking force, providing precise control over the playback experience. The included AT-HS6 universal ½ in. mount headshell is equipped with an AT-VM95E Dual Magnet phono cartridge, which has been meticulously engineered by the experts at Audio-Technica, a leader in phono cartridge design for over 50 years.

The AT-VM95E cartridge features a 0.3 mil x 0.7 mil elliptical stylus, but it is also compatible with any VM95 Series replacement stylus, offering users a wide range of options to suit their preferences and budgets.

Additional features of the turntable include a die-cast aluminum platter with a felt mat, a start/stop button, selectable high-accuracy quartz-controlled pitch lock and pitch change slider control with +/-8% or +/-16% adjustment ranges, a stroboscopic platter with speed indicator, a removable plug-type stylus target light, an external power supply, and a removable hinged dust cover.

The Audio-Technica AT-LP120XUSB-BK turntable's sturdy, damped base construction helps to reduce low-frequency feedback coloration, ensuring a high-fidelity audio experience. With its fully manual operation and adjustable features, users can fine-tune the playback to their liking, making it an excellent choice for both casual listeners and audiophiles alike.

Whether you're looking to convert your vinyl collection to digital or simply enjoy the warm, analog sound of your favorite records, the Audio-Technica AT-LP120XUSB-BK turntable offers a comprehensive and user-friendly solution, delivering exceptional performance and versatility.
