Our take on the Audio Technica AT-LP120XUSB Manual Direct-Drive Turntable (USB & Analogue)

The AT-LP120XUSB is a manual, direct-drive turntable built for DJ-style use and vinyl ripping. It has a built-in switchable phono preamp, USB output for recording to a computer, and a carbon-fiber tonearm with an AT-VM95E cartridge. It suits people who want a sturdy, adjustable deck for home listening or digitizing records. Against belt-drive rivals it starts faster and holds speed better, but it is heavier and needs manual cueing and speed changes.
