I also like the extra features of the AT LP120 that are originally meant for DJs. The target light comes handy when your room is not bright enough to find a track, and the reverse play is fun for listening to 'secret messages', and sometimes it can even fix skips.

I've owned an AT-LP 120USB. for the past 3 to 4 years. It's never failed me, tracks great and has never skipped on any record. This turntable is a real solid performer. The newer Audio Technica have probably replaced this model. Build quality on mine may be better. More metal and less plastic than the newer models.

I've owned high end/priced turntables before and they were great but... My Technics 1200 finally gave out on me a few years back so I decided to try out a Audio Technica LP-120XUSB. Have to say it has been a great player for over 2 years now. It sounds amazing, direct drive and functions perfectly, no issues. I would highly recommend it, even for those that think they have to spend mega money for audiophile equipment, it made me think.

About seven months ago, I bought an AT-LP120XUSB. I can't say anything bad about this TT. I haven't got that much money, but if you can afford it, get it. I have got a lot of mono records I bought a new head shell and a mono cartridge. It's a bit difficult to set up (a protractor is a must), but once you have it aligned, no problem. Vinyl rules!

I adore my Fluance rt81 such a wonderful piece of audio equipment. Did the 24hour motor burn in runs nice with no speed or wow problems. I use the Edifier 1280t speakers paired with the Fluance the sound is rich, full with plenty of sparkle and bass. Favorite album is Rush "Moving Pictures " and does that albums sound detailed and very satisfying. I will stay with this setup no need or want to buy anything else when it comes to turntable or speakers.

I have an older version of the Audio-Technica AT-LP120, and it is worth the money, I have upgraded some parts on it; a heavier counter weight, an Ortofon 2m red cartridge, and a cork platter mat. I love it. I still use the built in pre-amp, which when fed through a good equalizer sounds amazing, especially if you use headphones so you don't have to worry about vibrations.

I have this exact turntable and it, sadly, has a pronounced rumble. I bought a 2nd one just to see if the rumble was isolated to one specific unit. Nope. The 2nd one rumbled just like the first one. You can actually hear the turntable running even when it's not playing a record. The turntable rumble that you hear is transferred directly to the playback. This is a good unit for general listening. But for making digital archive recordings, this model is a bad choice as you'll hear the turntable rumble in each and every playback/recording. The features and pre-amp are good. But the rumble outweighs all. A noisy turntable is a bad turntable. The rumble due to the direct-drive motor setup. If you remove the aluminum platter the spindle turns very erratically and produces the same rumble. Exactly the same rumble you hear with the platter installed, but more obvious with the platter removed.

I'd rather have put in the RT-85 instead of the RT-81 (which is an excellent choice for vinly starters). It's in or slightly above the price range of the Debut Carbon, but comes with a superior 2M Blue and an acrylic platter. Plus, its W&F (0.07%) rating is far superior to the rather mediocre 0.2% of the Pro-Ject.

Bought AT.LP 120X over a year ago. I have an AT 95e cartridge with my own AT head shell. It's a grate turntable, very easy to use. Play it a lot and the only issue I have is the cuing has lost its dampening so when I cue a record the tone arm drops like a rock. Until I top up the dampening fluid I have to let the tone arm down slowly.

Nice budget beginner tables. Never belt drive for me though. I would say, get a Technics 1200 (new or even used), a Reloop 7000 or 8000, a Pioneer 1000 and yes, or the Audio Technica that was shown. It's an investment, so get something that will outlast you. So many easy to get, play as you pay options now a days. A $1,000 or more turntable for less than $50 a month. That's just me. There are many people still using Technics Turntables that were and still are around $500, that they bought 30 - 40 years ago, which have never given them a problem. Ebay has a ton of them, in excellent shape too.

Hmm, well I’ve had my belt driven Thicc (🤭) platter-as-heavy-as-a-house CAs for what, two decodes now? I”m still kinda partial to em. But hey, I also like rosewood bodied phono cartridges and I wash/vacuum my vinyl. I’m just weird like that 🤙. Equipment is cool, but I’m more into how it presents the music. Experimenting with tone arms and cartridge pairings is fun (I like both MM & MC - depends on the music and the tone arm matchup). Speaking of which, back to the music, Heilung (vinyl) is spinning, then maybe followed by some Alita Battle Angel soundtrack (vinyl), a dash of Woodkid (not vinyl) and wrapping w Doobies Black Water (vinyl). Wonder if the the new Tears for Fears “The Tipping Point” album will release on vinyl?

This is a good video. I think it bears mentioning the AT-LP60 is a very good beginning turn table, but is very limited in its capabilities. Number one is the tracking weight of the tonearm. It tracks around 4 grams which is a bit heavy and will cause premature wear in good vinyl. It is great for old records that may be a little worn already. The other is you cannot upgrade this table very much. The conical cartridge it comes with is good, but an elliptical would be a lot better sounding. On the plus side, replacements are cheap. Thanks.

Don't listen to those who say Technics this, Technics that. It's a pain to find the parts as you will need them in an aging TT that will soon be obsolete and expensive to fix, and the newer Technics models are insanely expensive and not as good as the old ones. Choose practicality and features over looks and price. The difference between entry/mid and high level TT aren't worth the price difference (diminishing returns).

The AT LP 120XUsb has no VTA, vertical tracking adjustment. It's a great low to mid level entry TTwith plenty of features for an audiophile, but you're pretty much stuck with the AT cartridges and you can upgrade it for a better AT, but I wished the 120x had the same features of the previous model like the VTA, better torque, and reverse button, although it fixed previous mistakes. If you want all these features, you'd have to save for the at lp 140xusb.

Can not recommend the LP120x enough . My 1210 died on me after 24 years of use . I was gonna pay out 800 quid for a new one then was told about the 120x at nearly a quarter of the price . It does everything I want it to do and it does it really well . The only fault with it I can say is start up and stopping is a little slow . Not ideal if you want to dj with it but for listening to vinyl it is perfect .

And I've got some records from 50 years ago and they sound CLEAN on this turntable. Really impressed with it.

It is about how quiet they run and how well they track a record at a light stylus pressure. Under 2 grams of stylus weight on the stylus and very low noise from the turntable, with a perfect speed is the goal. A $4000 dollar turntable does NOT buy you perfection because records are not perfect. I like direct drive because there are no belts to replace and most seem to last the test of time.

Best turntable is vintage turntable. An AR XA/XB has less wow and flutter (0.08) than 1.5k turntables, but you can pick one up for less than 100 if you know where to look. 1500% cheaper for better quality.

I own a lp 120 X and I agree with what you said the only fault I have found with it is the tone arm drops very quickly and quite hard on to the platter you have to be very careful when lowering the arm . But apart from that I love it . Thank for the video

I have 3 of the turntables which you have shown in this video and wish to make some corrections about the Denon Dp-300f and Audio-Technica AT-Lp60. I love the Pro-Ject for it's fabulous sound but it certainly is a pain to have to get near it before the side of a record is finished, to prevent the tone-arm from moving onto the record inlay and crashing onto the spindle. The Denon DP-300f, has an aluminium plinth and not a plastic one as you have mentioned. It's a brilliant turntable which truly comes to life once the stock cartridge is upgraded and has all the essentials for good sound reproduction. The Audio-Technica Lp60 is the one with an all plastic design. It is good for the price but it tracks at a higher force (3.5 grams) than the Pro-Ject's 1.8 grams and Denon's 2 grams and the sound quality, though at par for the money, is nothing to write home about.

The LP140X is a better DJ table because of the extra beef and higher torque motor, but the motor on the 120XUSB is actually quieter, which is better for sound quality. The 140 has a damped platter that the 120 doesn't have, but the 140 also doesn't have the USB feature or built in pre-amp....that could be viewed as a plus or a minus depending on your needs, but just wanted to clarify that there are some feature differences.
