Audio-Technica AT-LP120XUSB — Direct-Drive Turntable With USB Output

The Audio-Technica AT-LP120XUSB is a fully manual direct-drive turntable built for vinyl listeners who also want to archive records to a computer. A DC servo motor drives the die-cast aluminum platter directly, giving the deck the quick start-up torque and back-cue response that home listeners and aspiring DJs expect. Three speeds — 33-1/3, 45, and 78 RPM — cover modern LPs, singles, and vintage shellac pressings. A USB output streams 16-bit audio to a Mac or PC.

What Sets This Deck Apart in the Mid-Tier Class

Few turntables at this price combine a quartz-locked pitch slider with ±8% or ±16% adjustment, a removable plug-type stylus target light, and a damped base designed to cut low-frequency feedback. The detachable AT-HS6 ½"-mount headshell makes swapping between the bundled AT-VM95E cartridge and any other VM95-series stylus a tool-free operation.

Drive and Speed Stability — Built for Back-Cueing and Long Listening Sessions

Direct-drive torque and quartz-locked speed control keep wow and flutter below 0.2% (WTD) at 3 kHz.

• Speeds: 33-1/3 RPM, 45 RPM, 78 RPM with stroboscopic platter ring.

Phono Preamp, USB, and Connectivity

A built-in switchable phono pre-amplifier with 36 dB RIAA-equalised gain feeds any line-level input without an external phono stage. The deck has no built-in speakers, so playback requires an external amplifier, powered speakers, or a computer.

The Right Turntable for Home Listeners, Archivists, and Aspiring DJs

The AT-LP120XUSB is the right choice for vinyl owners who want one deck that handles everyday listening, 78 RPM archival work, and the occasional DJ set. Home listeners get a switchable phono preamp that drops into any stereo or powered speakers, while archivists can rip collections to a computer through the USB port. Aspiring DJs benefit from direct-drive torque, a quartz-locked pitch slider, and a removable headshell for cartridge swaps.

Audio-Technica — Half a Century of Phono Cartridge Design

Audio-Technica was founded in Tokyo in 1962, building high-performance phono cartridges long before expanding into microphones, headphones, and turntables. That heritage shows in the AT-VM95E shipped with this deck and in the broader VM95 stylus family owners can step up through.
