The AT-LP120XBT-USB is a fully manual direct-drive turntable built on the AT-LP120XUSB platform, with Bluetooth added alongside analog RCA and USB outputs. A DC servo direct-drive motor holds speed at 33-1/3, 45 and 78 RPM, and the S-shaped tonearm has adjustable tracking force and anti-skate. It ships with an AT-HS6 headshell and AT-VM95E cartridge, whose stylus can be swapped for any VM95 Series option. It suits listeners who want a sturdy DJ-style deck that can feed a stereo, a computer or wireless speakers; against belt-drive rivals it trades a little isolation for torque, quick start-up and pitch stability, and the built-in preamp means no separate phono stage is needed.

Owners treat it as a solid, well-built deck that does the basics reliably: steady speed, a good stock cartridge and easy USB ripping. The Bluetooth output is convenient but some find wired sound cleaner.
This is a fully manual, direct-drive turntable with Bluetooth wireless connectivity in addition to analog and USB outputs. It plays 33-1/3, 45 and 78 RPM records. It is modeled after the AT-LP120XUSB and uses a DC servo direct-drive motor.
It connects three ways. Bluetooth pairs it with wireless speakers, headphones and other devices, including those that support the Qualcomm aptX Adaptive audio codec. The included dual RCA cable and the built-in switchable phono preamp connect it to a home stereo or powered speakers. The included USB cable connects it to a computer, where free Audacity recording software for Mac and PC, or software of your choice, can convert records to digital audio files.
The balanced S-shaped tonearm has adjustable tracking force, adjustable dynamic anti-skate control, hydraulically damped lift control and a lockable rest. The AT-HS6 universal ½-inch-mount headshell holds an AT-VM95E Dual Moving Magnet phono cartridge with a 0.3 x 0.7 mil elliptical stylus. The cartridge works with any VM95 Series replacement stylus. The platter is anti-resonance die-cast aluminum with a felt mat, and the damped base reduces low-frequency feedback coloration. The AC adapter handles AC/DC conversion outside the chassis to reduce noise in the signal chain.
