About Audio-Technica AT-LP3

FEATURED REVIEWS

As good as you make it.

By Audiolad

If Audio Technica doesn't know what they have, why should anyone else. I've added a Vessel Line Contact cartridge (one of the best). The arm should actually be called a universal (length) and same with the headshell (added silver to white turntable). It is as good as the equipment you use it with. I have a very good ($400) external phono pre-amp. The sound is as good as a $1000 turntable, and it's automatic. It has the best automatic drop (concise) I've ever seen on an automatic.

Best turntable I have ever owned

By Dave

This is a great automatic turntable. The features, clean design, and sound are amazing.

The AT-LP3 fully automatic belt-drive turntable lets you take your analog listening experience to the next level with advanced features not typically found on automatic turntables. The balanced straight tone arm comes with a 1/2" mount universal headshell and AT91R Dual Moving Magnet phono cartridge, giving you excellent high-fidelity performance, plus the option to use other moving magnet or moving coil cartridges of your choosing.

A hydraulically damped lift control allows the stylus to be precisely and safely lowered and raised at any point on a record. Yet the turntable also offers fully automatic operation, so you can simply press the Start button to begin play and the Stop button to lift and return the tone arm and shut off the turntable (the stop function occurs automatically when a record has played all the way through).

The AT-LP3 is constructed of anti-vibration damping materials that limits low-frequency feedback. Resonance is further reduced by the turntable's die-cast aluminum platter and accompanying 4 mm rubber damping mat. Equipped to play both 33-1/3 and 45 RPM records, the AT-LP3 features a built-in switchable phono preamp and an attached dual RCA output cable that enable it be connected to a home stereo, powered speakers and other components whether they have a dedicated turntable input or not.
