This high-fidelity turntable is designed for the discerning audiophile, offering an immersive listening experience with its upgraded features and superior build quality. The AT-LP5X is powered by a direct drive, 3-speed (33-1/3/45/78 RPM) motor, ensuring stable, on-axis rotation for all your records. It houses an MM/MC phono pre-amp and USB capability within a high-density polymer cabinet, damped for mass to limit low-frequency acoustical feedback. Drawing inspiration from the classic Audio-Technica models of the 1960s and '70s, the AT-LP5X incorporates a J-shaped tonearm. This design, coupled with a metallic gimbal suspension system and precision bearings, mitigates tracking errors for a smooth, uninterrupted playback. The tonearm is also equipped with an adjustable counterweight and anti-skate control, ensuring optimal performance. The AT-LP5X comes fitted with a lightweight (9.3g) AT-HS6 headshell and the black AT-VM95E Dual Moving Magnet stereo cartridge. This cartridge, part of the VM95 series, features a 0.3 x 0.7 mil elliptical stylus and a special coil design that delivers a powerful output level of 4.0 mV. The cartridge's low-resonance housing includes threaded inserts for easy mounting to the headshell. The AT-LP5X turntable also features a built-in switchable MM/MC phono/line preamp, allowing it to connect directly to a computer, home stereo, powered speakers, and other components without a dedicated turntable input. The USB output enables direct connection to a computer, making it a versatile addition to any audio setup. With over 50 years of Japanese audio design expertise, the AT-LP5X turntable is a blend of contemporary style and advanced technology. Whether you're a seasoned audiophile or new to the world of high-fidelity audio, the AT-LP5X offers an unparalleled listening experience.
