Audio-Technica - Audio Technica AT-LP60X-BK Turntable - Black
- Key Specs
- Drive Type: Belt drive
- Operation Type: Automatic (Automatic turntables move the tonearm into position to begin playing a record and remove it when the record is finished, typically with a single push of a button. Semi-automatic turntables require user interaction to place the tonearm inititally, but will automatically remove it after playback. Manual turntables require the user to place and remove the tonearm as needed.)
- Integrated Preamp: true (An audio component that amplifies the turntable's audio signal to a level compatible for connection to a sound system.)
- Cartridge Type Included: Not included (Phono cartridges translate the grooves in a record into electrical signals to produce sound. There are two main types: moving magnet (MM) and moving coil (MC). Generally, MM cartridges have a robust design and high output levels. MC cartridges have an inverse design of MM that is lightweight and more precise, but usually require a preamp to boost their lower output signals.)
- Audio Only Outputs: 1 x Phono
- Network Connector(s): No network connectors

- Turntable Type: Component (All-in-one turntables have built-in speakers and an integrated preamp for optimal listening pwithout need for other device connections. Component turntables consist of the main turntable (may require separate purchase of cartridge) and require external connections before use. DJ turntables are digital devices with special features and sound effects intended for professional use.)
- Playable Record Speeds: 33 1/3, 45, 78
- Turntable Motor Type: AC
- Wow and Flutter: 0.25 percent (Measures "frequency wobble" or the level of distortion caused by speed fluctuations typically measured at kHz. The lower the percentage, the better the player's ability to sustain proper pitch and avoid distortion.)
- Speed Variation: 33.3rpm, 45rpm (The variance in platter revolutions per minute (RPM), typically asserted as +/- RPM. The smaller the variation in speed, the cleaner the sound and the fewer noticeable differences in pitch.)

A: If you already own passive type speakers, you will need to install a stereo receiver or amplifier between the turntable and the speakers. Receivers and Amplifier have a POWER amplifier inside to amplify connected sources, such as a turntable, up to a level that can adequately drive the speakers. Another option would be to use POWERED (aka active) type speakers. Powered speakers have their own power amplifier built into them so there is no need for a separate stereo receiver or amplifier. Due to the inclusion of a phono preamplifier in the turntable, the turntable may be connected to devices that either do or do not have a dedicated PHONO input for a turntable. A phono preamplifier raises the phono level signal from a turntable (which is very weak) to a stronger line level signal (such as that which you get from a CD Player) so it can drive the preamplifier section of a receiver, amplifier or powered speaker, then the preamplifier drives the power amplifier. Its all about gain staging so that, in the end, you have a good signal to noise ratio. A phono preamplifier also applies the RIAA equalization curve which is required for the playback of records.
