The AT-LP70XBT is Audio-Technica's entry-level fully automatic belt-drive turntable with Bluetooth output. It plays 33-1/3 and 45 RPM records, starts and stops at the touch of a button, and pairs with Bluetooth speakers and headphones, including aptX Adaptive. A switchable phono preamp lets it plug into a line input or a phono stage, and the J-shaped tonearm comes with the AT-VM95C cartridge, whose stylus can be upgraded within the VM95 line. Against the manual AT-LP60XBT it adds automatic operation and a better cartridge; against step-up models like the AT-LP120XUSB it gives up a metal platter, adjustable counterweight and USB. It suits first-time vinyl owners and anyone who wants wireless playback without setting up a separate preamp.

Owners treat the LP70XBT as an easy, good-sounding first turntable. They like the automatic operation and the Bluetooth pairing, and the VM95C cartridge gets credit for clean sound. Complaints center on the fixed cartridge and the lack of USB.
The Audio-Technica AT-LP70XBT is a fully automatic, belt-drive turntable with built-in Bluetooth. It plays 33-1/3 and 45 RPM records. It can stream wirelessly to Bluetooth speakers and headphones, including those that support Qualcomm aptX Adaptive.
Pressing a button starts playback, so no manual tonearm handling is needed. The J-shaped tonearm comes fitted with the AT-VM95C Dual Moving Magnet cartridge and a conical stylus. The cartridge is not removable, but the stylus can be replaced with any VM95 Series stylus, including elliptical, microlinear and Shibata types.
A built-in switchable phono preamp lets it connect to powered speakers, amplifiers or AV receivers with or without a phono input. The chassis has a three-piece anti-resonance construction, and the external AC adapter helps reduce electrical interference.
