Audio-Technica AT-LP70X Automatic Turntable (Black/Grey)

I bought this for my 11 year old nephew who is getting into "vinyl". I wanted to get something easy to setup and use, but high-quality enough that he wouldn't want to replace it after a while. It's just a really, really nice turntable. Currently plugged into Klipsch powered speakers. Sounds amazing. The automatic start/stop is really well done.

Bought to replace a 20+ year old Sony turntable. Did lots of research and chose this one. Great decision. The turntable is good quality, nice design, great look. Easy connection to my Onkyo amplifier using the supplied RCA cables. The sound quality is very good. Some commented on an issue with skipping. I have no issues with skipping, works very well. The start button moves the needle automatically with smooth precision. Also has a manual drop arm if you want to drop the needle at any location. Nice option.

Amazing and easy to use. Worth spending a bit more to get a great quality record player.

Very satisfied with the Audio-Technica AT-LP70X turntable, hooked it to my stereo amplifier, easy to do; sounds great; also like the optional preamp and ability to upgrade the stylus; shipping was a big plus, on time and carefully done; highly recommend!

I don't know why some of these turntables skip but mine works great. Well worth the money.

I am relatively new to vinyl collecting. I did a lot of research before deciding on this specific model. I chose this model because it is the happy medium between quality and convenience. As you get into more expensive turntables, you get higher quality parts like adjustable counterweights for dialing in the arm pressure, upgradable cartridges, etc, but you lose features like automation. A lot of more expensive turntables don't even automatically stop when the record is done. I know myself well enough to know I would not be observant enough to be ready manually raise the arm the moment the record is done. This one is fully automatic and sounds great. The stylus itself can be replaced but not the cartridge that holds the stylus. This cartridge is built in, but is a high quality. Another reason I went with this model is that it has RCA jacks, not built in cables, so you can use quality rca cables. It also has a proper grounding screw to ground it to your amp or preamp to eliminate noise. It also has a built in preamp that you can turn off if you are running it into an amp that has a built in preamp (it has dedicated phono jacks) or you are running an external preamp or you can turn the built in preamp on if you are running it straight into powered speakers that don't have a preamp. Anyway, if you are just getting started on researching turntables and are looking for the middle ground between quality and convenience, this is the one for you.

Great quality for a beginner record player. Has it for a year . Works perfect, great sound.

I wanted to get back into LPs after many years. This seemed like a good way to do so. When I first received the unit I was surprised at how lightweight it is and didn’t expect the main cabinet to be plastic. That is lack of research on my part. OK, what I was mostly concerned about was the sound quality. On quieter passages it sounded good. I did notice some distortion on louder portions of music, but thought maybe that is what LPs are supposed to sound like. A few weeks ago I decided to upgrade the needle (since the cartridge supports that feature). The new green needle didn’t sound any better and was skipping on virtually every record, so I returned it. Back to the original blue needle and the distortion has gotten worse, to the point of being unlistenable to me. There are no adjustments that can be made to the tonearm, and I am beyond the return period. Looks like this is headed to the garbage heap! Have ordered a Fluance RT-81 non-automatic turntable with the same Audio Technica cartridge with the green needle. It weighs more than twice as much as this model and has tracking adjustments. I hope I have a better experience with it.

Me encantó el diseño y el audio es bueno para el precio. Bien empaquetado y fácil de armar. Mejoraría los materiales un poco pues el cuerpo es plástico y daría mejor sensación un recubrimientos metálico sin embargo estoy conforme

Toca-discos maravilhoso e super funcional. Atendeu perfeitamente ao que eu estava procurando. E a qualidade sonora é incrível.

Funciona sin problemas, se arma fácil, y múltiples opciones para cambiar aguja. Es perfecta.

Ela é boa. Vi muitas críticas negativas sobre ela, mas comigo até agora está ok. Estou com ela a quatro meses e funciona perfeitamente. Mas tenho algumas ressalvas, o tapete do disco solta muita fibra e acaba ficando preso na agulha o que faz o som ficar estranho e a gente tem que ficar limpando. Se a caixa de som for uma das boas recomendo não deixar no mesmo lugar dela por que a trepidação do próprio som faz pular a agulha. Vi algumas resenhas gringas que é so comprar um tapete de qualidade e trocar a agulha por uma superior, mas pelo valor que se paga deveria vir com tudo isso.

Es una excelente tornamesa con un diseño muy agradable y con pre amp integrado. Había leído varios comentarios de que la aguja salta mucho pero para nada, llevo casi 2 meses con ella y la he escuchado casi a diario con buena parte de mi colección. Es una excelente opción, solo que no para pagar arriba de 5 mil por ella.
