The tonearm also includes an adjustable counterweight and anti-skate control and comes fitted with a lightweight (9.3g) AT-HS6 headshell and the black AT-VM95E Dual Moving Magnet stereo cartridge.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eConstructed of anti-vibration damping materials with heavy-mass metal chassis inserts, the AT-LP5x turntable has been designed to limit low-frequency acoustical feedback. Its precision-machined, die-cast aluminium platter is powered by a direct-drive, low-noise motor, ensuring stable, on-axis rotation at 33-1\/3, 45 and 78 RPM. A 5 mm thick rubber-damping mat, which isolates from low-frequency feedback while providing a highly stable surface for all LP formats, tops the platter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe AT-LP5x features a built-in switchable MM\/MC phono\/line preamp that enables it to connect directly to a computer, home stereo, powered speakers and other components that have no dedicated turntable input. The selection of MM\/MC cartridges allow for an easy upgrade to a moving coil with additional equipment. The turntable is also equipped with a USB output for direct connection to a computer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDirect-drive, low noise motor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFully manual operation with three speeds: 33-1\/3, 45 and 78 RPM\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAT-VM95E Dual Moving Magnet stereo cartridge (black) with replaceable stylus\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLightweight AT-HS6 headshell\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJ-shaped tonearm, modeled after original Audio-Technica designs from the 1960s and ’70s, are engineered to minimize tracking errors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSwitchable MM\/MC built-in pre-amplifier and line enables connection to components with or without a dedicated phono input\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAnti-resonance, die-cast aluminum platter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeavy rubber damping mat for improved low-frequency reproduction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAC adapter handles AC\/DC conversion outside of the chassis, reducing noise in the signal chain\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eElegant matte black finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes dual RCA (male) to dual RCA (male) stereo cable, 45 RPM adapter, USB cable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncluded dust cover and mounting hardware\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eType    \u003cem\u003e3-speed, fully manual operation\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMotor    \u003cem\u003eDC motor\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDrive Method    \u003cem\u003eDirect Drive\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpeeds    \u003cem\u003e33-1\/3 RPM, 45 RPM, 78 RPM\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTurntable Platter    \u003cem\u003eDie-cast aluminium\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStarting Torque    \u003cem\u003e\u0026gt;1.0 kgf.cm\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBraking System    \u003cem\u003eElectronic brake\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWow and Flutter    \u003cem\u003e\u0026lt;0.2% WRMS (33 RPM) at 3 KHz\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSignal-to-Noise Ratio    \u003cem\u003e\u0026gt;50 dB\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOutput Level    \u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cem\u003ePHONO: 4.0 mV nominal at 1 kHz, 5 cm\/sec \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cem\u003eLINE 250 mV nominal at 1 kHz, 5 cm\/sec\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePhono Pre-Amp Gain    \u003cem\u003e36 dB nominal, RIAA equalized MC: 56dB nominal, RIAA equalized\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUSB Function    \u003cem\u003eA\/D, - 16 bit 44.1 kHz or 48 kHz USB selectable; Computer interface - USB 2.0 compliant Windows 7 or above, MAC OS X or above\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePower Supply Requirements    \u003cem\u003e100-240V AC, 50\/60 Hz\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDimensions    \u003cem\u003e450.0 mm (17.72\") W x 352.0 mm (13.86\")D x 157.0 mm (6.18\")H\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight    \u003cem\u003e7.3 kg (16.1 lbs.)\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAccessories Included    \u003cem\u003eAT-VM95E Dual Moving Magnet stereo cartridge (black) with replaceable stylus; AT-HS6 lightweight headshell; AC adapter ; dual RCA (male) to dual RCA (male) stereo cable; 45 RPM adapter; USB cable; dust cover with hinges.\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"mysite","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57775265481052,"sku":"13992","price":38.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1011\/4731\/2476\/files\/AT-LP5X_ProductImage1.jpg?v=1780312675","url":"https:\/\/westvinyl.com\/products\/audio-technica-at-lp5x","provider":"West End Vinyl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
