What this turntable is and who it serves
The Audio-Technica AT-LP120XBT-USBBK is a fully manual direct-drive turntable finished in black. It plays 33, 45 and 78 RPM records and includes a built-in preamp with selectable phono or line output. Bluetooth wireless streaming and a USB connection let you listen through wireless speakers or record vinyl to a computer using Audacity or other software.
Who this suits and who should look elsewhere
DJs and vinyl enthusiasts who want hands-on control of pitch, anti-skate and tonearm lift will appreciate the quartz-locked variable pitch and hydraulically damped lift. Buyers who need a fully automatic start-stop mechanism or a belt-drive design should consider other models because this unit requires manual operation and uses a direct-drive motor.
The specification that decides fit
The turntable offers both Bluetooth wireless output and a USB digital output alongside traditional RCA analogue outputs. If your system requires only wired analogue connections, the wireless and USB features will go unused; if you need cable-free streaming or direct digital capture, this combination covers both in one device.

Questions about this item
Will the RCA output level match my vintage amplifier's phono input when I switch the built-in preamp to "PHONO"?
Yes — the "PHONO" setting delivers 2.5 mV nominal at 1 kHz, 5 cm/sec, which is a standard moving-magnet level that vintage phono stages expect.
How can I verify the direct-drive motor is holding the correct speed after I set the quartz lock?
The quartz speed lock lights when the platter reaches the selected 33, 45 or 78 RPM; you can also use the stroboscopic dots on the platter edge under mains lighting to confirm lock.
Which cables and adapters are included so I can start recording to a laptop right away?
The box contains a 1.2 m RCA audio cable, a 1.9 m USB cable, a 1.5 m AC adapter, a 45 RPM adapter, a felt mat, the platter with drive belt and a removable hinged dust cover.
