Product Information

This update of the AT-LP120-USB turntable features a new DC servo direct-drive motor, along with adjustable dynamic anti-skate control and selectable phono preamplifier. The fully manual turntable plays 33-1/3, 45, and 78 RPM records and is equipped with a USB output that allows direct connection to your computer. Just download the free Mac- and PC-compatible Audacity recording software (or software of your choice) and start converting your records to digital audio files. But in addition to the USB output, the turntable also comes with a detachable dual RCA output cable and is equipped with a built-in selectable phono preamp so you can connect directly to your home stereo, whether it has a dedicated phono input or not. 

The turntable features an S-shaped tonearm with adjustable tracking force and an AT-HS6 universal ½"-mount headshell with an AT-VM95E Dual Magnet™ phono cartridge. Audio-Technica has been a leader in phono cartridge design for more than 50 years, and that expertise shows in the versatile, high-performance AT-VM95E cartridge, which comes with a 0.3 x 0.7 mil elliptical stylus, but is also compatible with any VM95 Series replacement stylus, offering a wide choice of options for every budget and application.

AT-LP120XUSB-BK Direct-Drive 3-Speed Turntable with USB Output (Black)
Unfortunately I sent the item back because I ordered the wrong model I wanted the LP 140 so I cant give you a review of how it operated. Subsequently I re-ordered with worldwide stereo the correct turntables and they are fantastic

No Regrets!
Great turntable! Sets up quickly and easily. It came out ready to go and required next to nothing in adjustments. I did upgrade the stylus just because I prefer the extra sound quality of a diamond needle. Changing it out was easy if that’s the way you want to go. I did a lot of research before I purchased this model and it came highly recommended every place I read.

When will WWS have again this product available ?
eddie on Jan 30, 2022
  Please call us at 866.961.7781. Our product specialists are here to assist with questions on pricing and availability. Thanks.
can you plug this turntable directly into a soundbar that has both options for either rca plug or usb input?
A shopper on Mar 10, 2021
  Thanks for your inquiry. If your soundbar has a line level audio input the LP120XUSB, with its built-in phono preamp on, could be connected. Note that very few soundbars include an audio line level input. The LP120X USB output is typically connected to a computer. We are not aware of any soundbar with a USB input. Please contact our customer support dept. 866-961-7781 and speak with a product specialist for more information.
Does it have RCA outputs?
A shopper on Dec 5, 2020
  Thanks for your inquiry. The LP120 has RCA outputs for connection to phono inputs or line level inputs on a receiver or amplifier.
Can you play 78s with this included cartridge and if so, do you have to change the stylus. The old cartridges had a knob to switch from 33/45 to 78?
A shopper on Oct 7, 2020
  Thanks for your question. Playing 78 RPM records requires a spherical stylus, specifically designed for 78s. The included AT-VM95E cartridge will accommodate an (optional) AT VM95E 78 stylus. The turntable system and cartridge does not include a 78 stylus. Note that you must change the stylus to play 78s.
