Professional DJ Turntable
The Audio-Technica AT-LP140XP-BK is a fully manual direct-drive turntable built for club and mobile DJs who need precise speed control and durable construction. It offers selectable 33, 45, and 78 RPM speeds with quartz-locked pitch adjustment ranges of +/-8%, +/-16%, and +/-24%. The package includes a pre-mounted AT-XP3 cartridge with 0.6 mil conical stylus on a universal headshell.
Setup and Common Issues
Installation requires connecting the detachable dual RCA cable to a dedicated phono input on a mixer or amplifier, as the unit outputs a 5.5 mV signal without a built-in preamp. Users must balance the S-shaped tonearm using the counterweight and set the dynamic anti-skate control to match tracking force. The removable hinged dust cover and retractable stylus target light assist low-light cueing.
Phono Interface Limits
This turntable only works with equipment that provides a dedicated phono stage; line-level inputs will produce very low volume and incorrect EQ. The direct-drive motor delivers high torque for quick start/stop and forward/reverse play, but the fully manual design lacks auto-return or auto-stop functions. Pitch lock engages only when the slider is centred at zero.

Questions about this item
How do I verify the AT-LP140XP-BK is rotating at the correct 33, 45 or 78 RPM after setup?
Use the stroboscopic platter with speed indicator; the markings should appear stationary under the stylus target light when the quartz-controlled pitch lock is engaged at each selectable speed.
What accessories come in the box with the AT-LP140XP-BK and what must I purchase separately?
The turntable includes an AT-XP3 DJ cartridge with 0.6 mil conical bonded stylus pre-mounted on an AT-HS6 universal-mount headshell, a detachable dual RCA output cable and a removable hinged dust cover; a phono preamp or amplifier with dedicated phono input is required separately.
Which pitch adjustment range should I choose on the AT-LP140XP-BK for fine beat-matching versus extreme tempo shifts?
Select +/-8% for precise beat-matching, +/-16% for moderate tempo changes, or +/-24% for the widest pitch-shift range during creative mixing.
