Audio-Technica AT-LP120XUSB Fully Manual DC Servo Direct Drive Turntable with USB Output and On-board Preamp

A professional stereo turntable that features a newer design DC servo direct-drive motor, adjustable dynamic anti-skate control and selectable phono preamp, the AT-LP120XUSB Direct-Drive Turntable builds on Audio-Technica's experience with high-fidelity audio on vinyl. A fully manual turntable, play at three selectable speeds (33-⅓/45/78 RPM) without losing a beat thanks to the Strobosonic platter (with speed indicator) and removable plug-type target light for easy cueing in low light. Equipped with a USB output, you can directly connect to your Mac or PC and start converting records to digital audio files (recording software such as Audacity required, sold separately). AT-LP120XUSB is also equipped with an onboard selectable phono preamp to play directly to home studio and features a detachable dual RCA output cable, S-shaped tone arm, and removable hinged dust cover. Built with great Audio-Technica elements, save money on upkeep with compatible assemblies such as the AT-HS6 universal ½"-mount headshell, AT-VM95E Dual Magnet™ phono cartridge, and AT-VM95E 0.3 x 0.7 mil elliptical stylus (compatible with any VM95 series replacement). Professional level accuracy with an every-day play feel, AT-LP120XUSB has you covered.

It comes in your choice of Black or Silver.
