Our take on the Audio Technica AT-LP70X

The AT-LP70X is Audio-Technica's entry-level fully automatic belt-drive turntable, aimed at people buying their first record player. It plays 33-1/3 and 45 RPM records and has a built-in switchable phono preamp, so it connects to powered speakers, a stereo, or a component with or without a phono input. Its fully automatic operation starts and returns the tonearm at the press of a button, which sets it apart from manual rivals like the AT-LP60X's simpler sibling line and the Fluance RT80, which need hand cueing. It suits beginners who want low fuss, but it lacks the adjustable counterweight, anti-skate and upgradeable cartridge of step-up decks.
