LAB REVIEW
Audio-Technica brings together the economy and efficiency of manual operation, minimalist aesthetics and endless upgrade possibilities in one affordable audiophile turntable with the AT-LPW50PB. The turntable is loaded with features to ensure an excellent vinyl listening experience - sensor-monitored motor to ensure accurate platter rotation speeds, thick (30mm) anti-resonance MDF plinth for vibration dampening and increased overall mass, fully manual belt-drive (quieter + more stable than direct drive) motor, pre-mounted AT-VM95E moving magnet cartridge for versatile high-fidelity listening easily replaceable with any stylii in the VM95 range. The switchable phono preamp allows you to integrate with your current hi-fi setup or switch to line level to input directly into almost any speakers, and detachable RCA cables allow for upgrade to any number of premium RCA cables on the market. Easily accessible speed control knob allows you to conveniently switch between 33 and 45 RPM without lifting the platter and touching the belt, a feature not typically present at this price point. Dust cover, 45 adaptor and all necessary cables included.
