Turn-Digital-Table.

Let’s admit this... to many, a turntable is still unexplored territory! Thus, if you want a turntable that doesn’t need experience from your end, that doesn’t break the bank, plus, you just want an automatic player that’s simple to operate, the Audio-Technica AT-LP60 USB puts forth an excellent proposition. Way back in 1962, Audio Technica launched the AT-1 and the AT-3 MM stereo phono cartridge and began supplies to audio equipment manufacturers in Japan. With this rich heritage in mind, we unboxed this posh red turntable unit, and it frankly looked very promising for an assorted listening experience, right away! The available body colour options are select few in red, gunmetal and black.

If you are starting fresh with a vinyl collection or even advanced, this unit is a also a provision for a step towards converting your vinyl tracks into the digital format, without much compromise on audio quality. Must say, this AT-LP60 USB is a ready option, if you’re considering an upgrade from an all-in-one record player, you’ll be amazed at the difference in sound quality in your overall stereo setup.

Lets get this straight! An entry level turntable equipped and covered with a protective transparent clear dust cover, may not have all the elaborate features of some higher end turntables, but this one comes with some really neat, utility extras! Patient understanding of the features, their uses will help you appreciate this unit even more.
