collapse expand iconDescription

Whether you’re just getting into records, rediscovering an old vinyl collection or simply adding a turntable to complete your system, the AT-LP60X is an excellent choice. This automatic belt-drive turntable delivers the warm analog sound that digital files simply can’t recreate. Streaming compressed, low-resolution music from a mobile device doesn’t compare to the high-fidelity audio the AT-LP60X can provide.

Lightweight body, high-fidelity sound
The AT-LP60X turntable has a stylish, molded body that is designed to resist resonance and feedback. Combined with vibration-absorbing feet, the record player’s design provides excellent audio quality. A hinged dust cover provides protection and can be closed while a record is playing. A lightweight, straight tonearm delivers outstanding tracking.

High-performance phono cartridge and stylus
Your favorite records will sound better than ever with the included Dual Magnet phono cartridge. It features a replaceable elliptical stylus for excellent sound reproduction. The AT-LP60X turntable’s stylus is gentle on wax, so your prized records will not be worn unnecessarily. If you ever wear out your needle, it’s simple to replace.

User-friendly controls
The Audio-Technica AT-LP60X belt-drive turntable can play at two different speeds. Select from either 33-1/3 or 45 RPM with the simple touch of a button. These speed options will accommodate virtually any vinyl record manufactured since the 1950s, including smaller 7” records and 12” singles. User-friendly buttons power the deck on and off, and activate the tonearm.

Built-in, switchable preamp and detachable RCA cables
The AT-LP60X features a built-in switchable phono preamp, and can be connected directly to your home stereo, powered speakers, computer and other components, whether they have a dedicated phono input or not. Detachable RCA cables make it easier to transport and maintain the record player in the long run. To help reduce signal noise, this turntable boasts an AC adapter that moves the AC/DC conversion outside of the chassis.

Great Home System For A Pro-Mobile DJ!

I was active for 20 years, and I still have my vintage Technics MKII 1200's with Calzone Flight Cases! However, for home use, using one becomes a complete hassle, having to walk over to put the sylus back on its' pedestal each time the record ends. This TT eliminates that need, quite nicely. Now, I don't even need to pull one of my 1200's out of its' case! No frills, not even any lights, but it gets the job done!

Sounded great for two months - then stopped working!

While the sound quality of this device was impressive, within two months of normal use (one album played every day or two) the automatic tonearm function ceased to work. Pushing the START button moved the tonearm to the record but it touched down only to lift off and return to the rest, where it bobbed up and down repeatedly until I had to pull the plug. When I manually set the tonearm down on the record, it initially played fine but when it came to the end of the vinyl, it returned to the rest and just bobbed up and down again until I pulled the plug. Now placing the tonearm on the record only causes it to lift off and return to the rest and bob up and down until I pull the plug -- it is impossible to play the record. Of course, this all happened within a week after Guitar Center's return deadline. (Coincidence?) This is apparently a known design flaw as Audio Technica's service dept. offered a reset (spin the turntable while holding the tonearm in place at the rest), which of course did nothing to correct the problem. Knowing what I now know about this device, I would definitely not purchase again.

    The build is mostly plastic, but once it's setup, you can't really tell and it adds a lovely aesthetic to the room. While it does have a conical stylus, the sound was pleasantly surprising and clear! I love using it, and if you're looking for a beginner turntable that gets the job done while remaining affordable, I'd go with this one. #sweepstakes

    I was really surprised at how good this sounded. It's definitely in the lower end of turntables, but with a pair of good speakers, wow, it sounds good! I can only imagine how much better it would sound with a higher-quality stylus and cartridge. Definitely not the highest build quality, but it looks great nonetheless and isn't "dingy".

    It's great. But, I've never owned a record player before, so I wasted an hour trying to figure out why the arm wouldn't go down. FYI, the button on the right is not a power button, it's a raise and lower button for the arm.
