Enjoy precise and reliable vinyl playback with the Audio-Technica Consumer AT-LP8X Semi-Automatic Direct-Drive Turntable. The AT-LP8X features an aluminum J-shaped tonearm, inspired by classic Audio-Technica models from the 1960s and ’70s that automatically raise and stop the motor at the end of a record side.
The AT-LP8X can play records at 33-1/3, 45, and 78 rpm speeds. It is powered by a direct-drive motor regulated by a speed sensor that ensures continuously accurate platter rotation. The tonearm comes equipped with the ultralightweight AT-LT10 headshell and AT-VM95E cartridge with elliptical stylus. To reduce resonance, the 25mm aluminum platter is rubber damped and comes with a 2.5mm rubber mat. Additionally, the sturdy MDF box plinth houses a switching power supply and is outfitted with feet that can be individually adjusted to further reduce unwanted noise and vibration. The results are outstanding tonal quality, with excellent channel separation, and low distortion.
AT-VM95 Upgradable Stylus
The included AT-VM95 series cartridge includes a replaceable stylus, available in five different styles. In addition to the included AT-VM95E elliptical stylus, you can upgrade to the separately available AT-VMN95EN elliptical nude, AT-VMN95ML microlinear, AT-VMN-95SH shibata, or for 78 rpm records, change it out for the AT-VMN95SP stylus.
