Product Description

zZounds is an
authorized Audio-Technica dealer

Rediscover the depth and richness of vinyl sound without having to place a lien on your house with Audio-Technica's AT-LP120 Turntable.

Featuring a sleek metallic finish, a high-torque direct-drive motor, a magnetic cartridge, pitch lock and slider, forward and reverse play capabilities and a bevy of other functions, this professional quality turntable offers you a complete listening experience.

The simple direct USB output allows you to easily and quickly copy and preserve your vinyl collection to CD/MP3. The selectable internal stereo-phono pre-amplifier with line-level RCA output allows for a wide range of plug-in options.

Similar in look, feel, and functionality as the well-regarded but prohibitively expensive Technics SL1200MK5 DJ TurnTable, the Audio-Technica AT-LP120 Turntable offers you the industry's highest quality at a tiny fraction of the price.

zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. "Great value, well built, needs only a few upgrades . ."

Sound: This turntable is the finest in its price class. I have found it to be a joy to operate and use. Quality: Although this turntable is a nearly dead on copy of the Technics 1200, it does show its price point in a few areas. The stock cartridge is very average, the built in preamp must also be avoided. I purchased the Shure M97e, and also a stand alone preamp. After these purchases the turntable really comes to life. I also purchased a stock Technics rubber platter mat. All well worth the investment. If you plan to use this turntable 100% as is from the factory it will certainly do the job but why not invest in what you have and really make it sound its best. Value: Yes it is very much worth it. But also be prepared to spend another $200 in several key areas to increase the turntables sound quality. The Wow Factor: If your going to get into listening to vinyl again like I have, this turntable is a great value that will last many years. Overall: Great product. Well built, just needs a few upgrades to perform at a high level.

zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. "Great turntable, with a few quarks"

Sound: I first ordered an entry level turntable and was just getting too much noise back through it (from my speakers). This turntable does a much better job and I have no complaints about the sound at all. Vinyl can sound much better than digital. Feature: The features are OK and what you would expect on a professional quality turntable. No frills to add noise like auto play or anything Ease of Use: This is where it gets tricky. I love the turntable, but it wasn't really designed very well. The on/off switch is really stupid, its not like any I have ever seen and hard to use. Its like a recessed knob and hard to reach, but it has a really nice start/stop button to get the platter going. Why did we need both, why didn't the start/stop button also turn off the main power (really the only thing that comes on when you turn on the master switch is the strobe, you have to hit start to get the platter spinning)? Also the lifter is very small and not as good as it could be. But then they go and add this huge speed control knob that is used very little. Why didn't they make the lifter this nice since it will be used 100x more? Quality: Very well made and lots of heft. Other than the controls mentioned about I am very pleased with the quality. Value: Good value, you would have to spend 2x to maybe get something better. Its a great turntable for the money. I got it open box and saved a bunch of money. Manufacturer Support: Not had to need to contact AT, but ZZounds was great as always when I went to change out the other table. Thanks to them, as always. The Wow Factor: Very sexy, but I am too old to fall for that trick, I want performance, that is what is sexy to me. Overall: It better last me a lifetime, unless I hit the lottery, then I my McIntosh tube amp will need something better.

Style of Music: Allison Krause to Alice in Chains
