  • Solid TT at a fairly good price - a good place to discover or rediscover vinyl
Color: Silver Pattern Name: Turntable
The media could not be loaded. this is my first Quality TT. I haven’t had a TT for about 40 years - growing up my family had an all in one Kings Point stereo system with Cassette, 8-Track, Vinyl (fully auto) - had a handful of records - but by the time i had any money to purchase music - i bought cassettes due to the popularity of the Sony Walkman and on the go music. Then CDs came along - like some/most people i ditched the vinyl - fast forward i ordered the LP120xusb - there happens to be alot of versions of the LP120 model from Audio-Technica and it can get quite confusing. This is the latest iteration of the LP120 - there are come features that A-T abandoned with this one. i don't know a whole lot about turntables - but the set up is fairly easy - i looked on Youtube where A-T gives instructions on how to set up the tone arm and with the counterweight and the anti-skate. There's also prevalent old information out there that says the Anti-Skate doesn't work on the LP120 - the internet has a way with keep some seriously old info out there - as well as Youtube. The anti-skate does work - no i didn't perform a blank CD test or a blank test with a blank vinyl - i know the anti-skate works because when i was setting up the counter weight for the tone arm (my anti-skate was dialed in at 2 per A-T instructions) - i was supposed to dial the counter weight back to 2 grams (that is the recommended weight for the cartridge) but i forgot to do that - i was going to play a record but when i try to place the needle right above the start groove - it kept swinging right and would not lower because i had my anti-skate dialed to 2 but i neglected dial the counter weight to the 2 grams necessary for the proper set up. Once i did adjust the counter weight it was fine. The supplied pre-mounted cartridge was already aligned at the factory so all i needed to do was to insert the cartridge and tighten the mount and i was ready to go. Alot of negative opinions on the build quality - i found it nice and pretty solid - it's not a chintzy feel - it doesn't feel cheap to me. feels fairly hefty given its size - as it should be for stability. body is made of plastic but the platter is aluminum and it is solid. Sound quality is decent - of course it also depends the pressing of the vinyl as well - but i did notice some distortion at the higher frequencies - i listen mainly to movie scores and my collection is going to be just predominately movie scores - i would say that the higher frequencies are somewhat muddy - maybe my set up is wrong or i could use a upgrade in stylus and/or cartridge - Bass and midrange no issues- sounds great. It plays 33,45,78 - for this iteration they got rid of playing reverse so i'll never know if "Paul is Dead" since i cant hit the reverse on this one. i don't have any 78 records but it's there if i need it. The TT is direct drive (no belt) and it is quiet - Zero motor noise - i turn up the volume on my receiver (Yamaha R-N803) and all i hear is the noise floor - i'm really impressed with how quiet this thing runs. they do not include a disk for the free Audacity freeware - the site you need to go to download this freeware is audacityteam.org -- in the youtube instructions A-T gives it as AudacityTeam.net - that being said it is given correctly in the instruction manual. if you to rip vinyl and use audacity please note that on the Lp120 you have to switch in the back to say "LINE" - unless of course you're already switched to LINE (instead of PHONO) because either you are running it with active (self-powered) speakers or you are using an amp/receiver that does not have a dedicated PHONO input. I was going to go with Sony PH-x500 (400) because of the hi-res ripping capability but decided against since you'll also be recording the pops and clicks in hi res - figured the LP120xusb would be more than adequate. plus it left me a bit of money to actually buy some vinyl. i love this turntable - looks good - sounds good - if you're looking to discover or rediscover vinyl - this is a good place to start. thanks for reading Edit: after about a month using it. I found myself just listening to the limited amount of records I have and I haven’t touched any digital music file. I have listened to CDs though. I’m not sure what it is about it that has captured my attn. Also on another note. Now having more experience listening to records. I feel that these new vinyl are getting pressed directly from a digital source- I have no problem with that however they really should remaster it specifically for vinyl. The medium is different each with it own subtleties. I think the last Tomb raider score by Junkie XL was not mastered correctly for vinyl so the high end sounds “crunchy” still a good score however. You might take the above edit with a grain of salt I don’t know anything about producing music or any aspect of it. I do like to listen though! Edit 7/6/19. I find myself not really using the usb audacity rip function. It’s like I’ll listen to the vinyl rather than ripping it and using that recording digitally. I just rather listen to the vinyl. Edit 7/15/19 - this weekend i listened to 4 movie scores on vinyl on headphones - running the yamaha r-n803 receiver headphones (sennheiser hd650, beyerdynamic dt770 250Ohm, beyerdynamic dt880 250Ohm, - the 650 was on the warm side and so was the dt880 - it paired well with the DT770 giving it a bit more on the high end. edit 8/12/19 - this weekend i found 3 records from 30-40 Years Old- an old stash of mine from the 80s. (don't judge haha) 2 debbie gibson EP (1988, plays at 33.3RPM) - Foolish Beat EP and Staying Together EP -- and The Empire Strikes Back LP (1980). oh boy Foolish Beat it sounded exceptional - 30 year record - some surface noise and a bit dusty but oh boy serious fidelity - this thing sounded like it was pressed yesterday i swear.. The Empire strikes back - the vinyl was warped but it tracked well and playable - a bit tinny but overall for a 40 year old record it sounded good on the Audio Technica 120XUSB - seriously ZERO regrets on going with Audio Technica 120XUSB. great bang for the buck. Edit 8/20/19 added new “medley” video. Remember that the music has been compressed and also it was taken with the iPhone X. Edit 10/21 last weekend by brother dropped by. He was just staring at my system - I was playing daft punk discovery and he said whats this? They record is pressed exceptionally- He couldn’t believe it was vinyl. I mean he hadn’t heard vinyl for 40 years- he was surprised but I don’t think I conveRted him to vinyl due to the insane prices. edit 10/28 - someone mentioned a wobble on the comments section - i see what may have cause it to look like a wobble is the dots on the side of the aluminum platter that may not have been manufactured straight perhaps or the record itself may not be 100% flat. i'm 100% satisfied with this player - 250 - not alot of "investment" but a whole lot of joy - i wish they pressed the records with better precision and with less dust...... 11/7 edit. I’ve been paying closer attn to the platter. There is a bit of a wobble yes - but it hasn’t affected the sonic performance Most of the records here I used the supplied felt mat which was not 100% flat. I have since replaced with a Hudson acrylic mat. 11/26/20 - i'm listening to this right now.. still going. at some point ill have to change the needle... I releveled my turn able and while the platter is flat and level some of my records are badly pressed. Still love it tho! 5/12/21 - im still listening to it - just got an outboard phono stage for it iFi zen phono. still sounds good! 5/26/21 - I upgraded the cartridge and stylus at-vm95ml. Good stuff. ... show more

  • Great sounding turntable
Color: Black Pattern Name: Turntable
I enjoy the easy setup. The quality of sound is very good. I also picked this turntable because it will play 78 speed records. Although you will need a different needle to play the 78's.

  • The Most Beautiful Turntable
Color: Bronze Pattern Name: Turntable
For years I have wanted to upgrade my vinyl listening setup and to be honest, the biggest reason I waited so long is because I knew nothing about turntables. So after talking to friends and doing about 6 months of research I found this turntable and was immediately drawn to it. The bronze design is just beautiful and paired with the Klipsch R-51 speakers it just looks so cohesive together. The feel of this turntable is extremely far from cheap. You are getting a premium product that feels well put together. It is heavy and has every feature you would want in a premium turntable. I could not be happier with it so far. My only con would be that there is a faint burning smell after I had been playing music for a couple of hours. I thought the motor was burning out and frantically started researching the problem. I found out through a forum that this is pretty common for this model and that its harmless and is just something that happens when you first start using it and it goes away. ... show more

  • Worth it
Color: Black Pattern Name: Turntable
The AT-LP120XUSB is the first *real* record player I've owned, in that it's fully manual and has a higher-end stylus and professional grade counterbalance and anti-skate. Some thoughts: In doing my research, I came across some proposals that direct drive would cause additional static or vibrations. So far I've used this TT for about 75 hours in a month, and honestly it's the clearest sound I've ever heard. Previously I had an AT-LP60BT (belt drive), and the sound quality difference is so much better than that one. The only thing I noticed about the motor is that it sometimes gives off an odor, not like burning but more like gently heating up electronic components. I made sure to plug it into a surge protector after that to prevent overheating. This TT might not be the best for beginners. Although it has an arm lift lever to aid in placement, the arm is designed to be neutrally "buoyant," meaning if it's not handled carefully, the arm will swing freely and could potentially cause some damage to your records. If used carefully and properly (the setup manual recommends 2 grams), the weight will not affect your records at all and they'll last many years. I've actually had to adjust the anti-skate with some of my records, which I never thought I'd have to do, but I suppose some of them have deeper grooves than others. If the counterbalance weight is too low, any tiny particle of dust can cause skipping, but if skipping cannot be prevented regardless of weight (scratches), I have had to lower the anti-skate to about 1g less than the weight, and that seemed to solve the problem. The plug-in light guide feature is honestly kind of useless. They could have left that part off; all it does is illuminate all the dust on your record. I only keep it plugged in so I don't lose it. I haven't tried the USB function yet because the table is so sensitive to movement that I'm afraid it won't record properly if I even slightly jostle my laptop while plugged in. Even with the padded feet and hefty weight (over 20 lb), it's extremely sensitive and the arm will move (although I suppose if you adjusted the counterbalance to be heavier, this could solved, that but may damage the records). User-friendliness: 6/10. Fully manual, so when the record is done, the platter keeps spinning until you press the stop button, and arm stays in place at the end of the record so you'll just hear the stylus crossing the groove over and over until you reset the arm by hand. Kind of annoying, and requires you to be more active in your listening. Set up took about 30 minutes and the manual included doesn't have any words on it (?), just pictures. If you want more detailed descriptions, you have to go online to get a .PDF manual. Sound quality: 10/10. First record I listened to was Billie Eilish/When We Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go? because it has a lot of low bass and very soft mid and treble, and this TT picked up every tiny sound perfectly. It was almost as good as listening to an MP3 with headphones. No background noise from the platter whatsoever. Value: 9/10. This is basically the cheapest "intermediate" TT you can get. Definitely recommend to anyone looking to improve their listening experience without throwing down $400 on something with which you're not even sure you'll be able to notice a difference. And of course, the head is removable, so you can probably upgrade there with another high-end AT stylus, but you likely won't need to for a long time because the one included is very good. ... show more
