Precision Turntable Level
The Audio-Technica AT615A is a precision aluminum bubble level designed for turntable setup. It helps vinyl enthusiasts achieve accurate horizontal alignment for optimal playback performance.
Leveling Accuracy Limits
The bubble vial provides a visual reference for leveling but cannot measure angular deviation in degrees. Users must interpret the bubble position themselves, which introduces subjectivity compared to digital alternatives.
Simple Placement Installation
Place the level on the platter or plinth and adjust the turntable feet until the bubble centers. The main difficulty is ensuring the surface measured represents the true playing plane, as platter flatness varies.
Highlights

Questions about this item
Should I pick the AT615A or the AT-VM530XEN cartridge for my setup?
The AT615A is an aluminium bubble level for levelling the turntable plinth, while the AT-VM530XEN is a dual moving-magnet cartridge with a 0.3 x 0.7 mil nude elliptical stylus; they serve completely different functions.
What does the 25 dB channel separation mean when I play a record?
A 25 dB separation at 1 kHz indicates the level of crosstalk between left and right channels; higher values give a wider stereo image, and this figure is typical for a quality moving-magnet cartridge.
How does the 47 k ohm load impedance affect the sound?
The cartridge is designed for a 47 k ohm phono input; using the correct load ensures the specified 3.2 mV output and flat frequency response up to 25,000 Hz.
