Audio-Technica AT-LP5 Direct-Drive Record Player

AT-LP5 Direct-Drive Record Player. The AT-LP5 direct-drive turntable brings advanced technology and sleek, up to date styling together for performance that looks as good as it sounds. Born of Audio-Technica’s rich analog heritage, the AT-LP5 contains a J-shaped tone arm that takes its inspiration from the classic A-T models of the 1960s and ’70s. The tone arm features a metallic gimbal suspension system and precision bearings to mitigate tracking errors, and includes an adjustable counterweight and anti-skate keep watch over. It comes outfitted with a lightweight (10 g) AT-HS10 headshell and high-performance AT95EX Dual Moving Magnet stereo cartridge, created specifically for this turntable. Constructed of anti-vibration damping materials with heavy-mass metal chassis inserts, the AT-LP5 is a class leader in limiting low-frequency acoustical feedback. Its precision-machined, die-cast aluminum platter is powered by an immediate-drive, high-torque motor, ensuring stable, on-axis rotation at 33-1/3 or 45 RPM. The platter is topped by a 5 mm thick rubber damping mat that improves low-frequency reproduction. The AT-LP5 features a built-in switchable phono/line preamp that enables it to be connected instantly to a pc, home stereo, powered speakers and other components that don’t have any dedicated turntable input. The turntable may be equipped with a USB output for direct connection to a pc, and comes with PC- and Mac-compatible Audacity® software that allows you to convert your records to MP3, WAV or other digital audio file formats.
