The next-generation Audio-Technica AT-LP5X Fully Manual Direct-Drive USB/Analog Turntable pushes the performance of its predecessor, the renowned AT-LP5, to new heights. Offering upgraded features like 3-speed (33-1/3, 45, 78 rpm ) motor, a preamp gain switch to accommodate both moving-magnet (MM) and moving-coil (MC) cartridges, an AT-VM95E dual moving-magnet stereo cartridge, and a sleek, contemporary style with matte finish, this versatile deck looks every bit as good as it sounds.

The AT-LP5X incorporates a J-shaped tone arm, a design that harks back to the '60s and '70s, and utilizes a metallic gimbal suspension system with precision bearings to mitigate tracking errors. The tone arm also features an adjustable counterweight, antiskate control, and comes outfitted with a lightweight (0.3 oz) AT-HS6 headshell and a black, high-output / low-distortion AT-VM95E dual moving-magnet stereo cartridge.

Housed in a mass-damped, high-density polymer cabinet with heavy-mass metal chassis inserts, the AT-LP5x is engineered to limit low-frequency acoustical feedback. The precision-machined, die-cast aluminum platter is powered by a direct-drive, high-torque motor, ensuring stable, on-axis rotation at 33-1/3, 45, and 78 rpm.

The turntable features a built-in, switchable MM/MC phono/line analog preamp with RCA output connectors that enable connection to either a home stereo or powered speakers, or allow you to connect to a phono preamp. The selection of MM/MC cartridges optimize the gain for your cartridge of choice, allowing for an easy upgrade to a moving-coil cartridge without additional equipment. Moreover, the USB port gives you a direct connection to a Windows/Mac computer, great for preserving your favorite vinyl records as digital files.

The AT-LP5X ships with an AC adapter, USB cable, dual-RCA stereo cable (with grounding wire), 45 rpm adapter, and a removable dust cover with hinges.

Have been an album collector off and on through the years. We recently got space back to set up the stereo but with an upgrade. This turntable was just right being compatible with the original gear and great as a stand-alone. The package arrived sooner than we expected. Thank you so very much B&H team! 5

First of all, the turntable looks incredible! Very beautifully designed. The sound is quite impressive - I actually don't recall my albums sounding this good, but it's been such a long time since I've played them. I wish the speakers matched the aesthetic quality of the turntable (not so crazy about the green trim piece), but again they sound incredible! I had thought that I would never be able to enjoy my albums again (and I have a lot of them!); so I am extremely happy. If you have maintained an album collection, you want to get this system so that you may enjoy them again... 5

This is a nice record player that works well. It sounds good, looks good, and was easy to set up. I know the idea of a Bluetooth enabled record player would probably make a serious audiophile gag but for my purpose it made it so much easier - I have one set of high quality Bluetooth speakers and they're linked to multiple devices including this record player, my phone, and my wife's phone. This record player enables me to not have a birds nest of wires and cables which is really nice. As far as I can gell it sounds just as good as my previous record player which did use cables to connect to the speakers. 5

Got it on sale for $100 off black friday... pretty easy to set up - connected speakers with wires... sounds good. also 'magically' connects to my Smart TV in next room with bluetooth - easy setup. Happy with purchase - 5
