Product Information

This superbly made, professional quality DJ turntable is designed primarily for use in clubs, touring, and mobile DJ applications. It can also be used by music-lovers to play their record collections at home. Its sleek, elegant matte-black and silver design fits into any stereo music or home entertainment system, and its built-in switchable phono pre-amp enables it to be used with a wide variety of receivers, powered speakers and other A/V components. As an added benefit, the turntable offers a USB output that allows direct connection to a computer for easy LP-to-digital conversion.

AT-LP1240-USB XP Direct-Drive Professional DJ Turntable (Black)
Love the product! It looks cool in the dark with the on switch and the light for setting the needle. I love the fact that it plays at all three speeds including 78. The unit plays both forward and backwards and the turntable stops on a dime (for quick switching of albums) without having to turn the unit off.

Can you disable the pre-amp in the output?
Alan M on May 31, 2021
  Thanks for your inquiry. A Pre-amplifier selector switch on the rear of the unit allows bypass of the built-in preamp (phono position).
