  • great product , quality piece of equipment and set up takes 20 minutes.

  • Great performance and loved the product for its genuine setup and calibration procedures

Reviews around build (5.00 of 5)

  • I've read that belt drives are quieter.-The built in pre-amp is not great (
  • Don't know if it will last that long, but it seems to be well designed and well built.
  • However, I do find this to be a well built turntable and it sounds great

Reviews around cartridge (5.00 of 5)

  • The turntable is working flawlessly and the extra cartridge plus record cleaning brush were a bonus as well!
  • The extra cartridge makes this unit well worth the cost.
  • This made me realize how good the LP120 could sound with a good pre-amp and better cartridge, but with the motor noise it's not worth adding stuff to the LP120.
  • This is a solid and well made direct drive turntable that comes with a decent AT95E cartridge
  • And, the extra cartridge and record cleaner was a great bonus.

Reviews around touch (5.00 of 5)

  • The extra cartridge and included brush is a nice touch to help keep your vinyls clean
  • I’m sure they share the same “guts”, so the question becomes, $200 more, 3 times as much, for the extra, finer touches the 120 offers?
  • Happy to have purchased an extra needle and brush was certainly a nice touch.
  • It takes a fine touch to get the tone arm balanced, but that’s not necessarily specific to this unit

Reviews around package (5.00 of 5)

  • It arrived as promised with no damage and packaged well.
  • but it was fine, because the packaging from AT was so good
  • Package arrived as promised and worked without a problem.
  • Shipping boxes are twice the size of the original manufacturer's carton and do not have enough protective packaging to protect against mishandling in shipping.

Reviews around brush (5.00 of 5)

  • I added a good pre-amp (Pro Ject Phono Box S) and switched the LP120 to phono output and it made a HUGE difference in sound quality, volume and overall dynamics and frequency response.
  • The turntable is working flawlessly and the extra cartridge plus record cleaning brush were a bonus as well!
  • The inclusion of an extra stylus and cleaning brush was a bonus
  • This one is nice in that it comes with an extra stylus and the cleaner brush.

Reviews around equipment (3.61 of 5)

  • I suggest to the seller to use ( next time and every time) more bubbled / cushioned type of seal for this entire, very delicate and semi- expensive music equipment
