Perfection thus far. Easy to set up, bluetooth works perfectly and sound quality is top notch

Vinyl has long been the dominant music format in the 20th century. However, it rapidly declined with the rise of MP3s and lately streaming. But in the past few years or so, it’s making a comeback because for some the analog sound is way better than digital. But unfortunately for some the costs and inconvenience of listening to vinyl, had made it hard for mass consumption for the second time. The Audio-Technica belt driven and wireless turntable aims to bridge the gap. First, the Audio Technica is shipped with without hot being fully assembled. One would simply attach the plate te to the turnable and put on the vinyl mat and you’re good to go. There are two ways to connect the Audio Technica. One obviously is via Bluetooth. There is a pairing button om the left side of the unit and just give a long press. The other way to connect is via RCA cables. There are two modes which can be set at the back. There is the standard mode that you need to have an amplifier to connect to the speakers. The other mode is to connect to active speakes such as PC speakers. Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to test the turntable via stereo speakers since I do not have an amp. I was able to test the turntable via Bluetooth speakers. And as per my experience, sound output is a hit or miss. Using my Sony Bluetooth speakers, I wasn’t able to get good sound. But I used my Sharkk Bluetooth speakers, everything sounded better. So for Bluetooth speakers your mileage may vary. But I am pretty sure this would sound better with a proper amplifier. Lastly, this is a belt driven turntable with a fixed weight tone arm which are fine by me. But for vinyl lovers there, these two will be a source of a lengthy debate. Let’s just enjoy the warm crisp sound of vinyl IMO since this is an entry level turntable. I would definitely recommend this one!

Solid design and perfect for people who are getting into vinyl. I wish you could raise the plastic clear cover fully.

This a great record player for any regular collector that just wants something simple. It’s very easy to setup and get right into listening. This specific one is Bluetooth compatible so it makes it so much more easier to setup. Has a nice clear dust cover that sort of makes your vinyl look cool. I enjoy it for its simplicity, build quality, and its look it’s just modern and sleek.

I grew up with vinyl records in the 60’s and 70’s. Using the same records played on the Audio-Technica Fully Automatic Wireless Belt-Drive Turntable with Bluetooth sounds so much better. I already had a bluetooth speaker so all I needed was this turntable. If you do not have a Bluetooth speaker you will need to purchase one to listen to the albums on. I love that I can have my turntable in one room and my speaker in another. My old records never sounded better. The sound of the vinyl does not have the same sound at all and some of the albums are worn a bit but it doesn’t matter with this turntable. This turntable’s footprint is small. It has a removable lid making it easy to put on my albums or 45’s. It comes with a thing to put on your 45 records just like the old record players. I had no problem syncing the Bluetooth speaker to the turntable. It was so simple. I do have a good quality speaker though. I have two speakers but have not tried to connect both at the same time yet. I don’t see any reason why it wouldn’t work though. I love this turntable and the sound of my old music is better than digital older music.

Gone are the days of annoyingly balancing the needle on a record. The Audio Technica AT-LP70XBT is a fully automatic record player that is a testament to modern conveniences without sacrificing audiophile standards. With a simple press of a button, the turntable glides into action, gently lowering the stylus onto the record and returning it to its resting place when the music ends. Done listening before the record side is fully complete? Just push the stop button and the tonearm lifts up and returns home. The record player build quality is top notch and is the expected standard from an Audio Technica product. Another great feature is the Bluetooth functionality built into this record player. No longer do you need to invest in an amplifier and bookshelf speakers to listen to your records in high definition. Invest in any beefy modern Bluetooth enabled speakers and you can pair them seamlessly and enjoy. No longer are you tied to a specific location to be able to listen to your records. If you are a seasoned record pro, this record player might be a great addition to your collection to expand your listening experience to a different location. The modern conveniences that this record player provides are more quality-of-life upgrades over traditional record players where you have to adjust speed, counterweights, and tonearm movement. For a beginner record enthusiast, this record player will not stand in your way to enjoy how music was supposed to sound back in the day.

I love this record player and am very happy. I use it almost everyday and the music sounds amazing. I have it wired to speakers and also use a Bluetooth speaker if I want to listen while I’m outside in the yard. I have purchased other brands like Crosley and Victrola and was very disappointed in them both. My third time I tried this audio technica and love it . Also, the needles are easy to change and last about 300 hours so if your like me, you will need replacements often which is totally worth doing. Also easy to assemble

The Audio-Technica AT-LP70BT has great quality and is very easy to use. The design looks clean and modern, and it worked perfectly right out of the box. A great choice for enjoying vinyl without complications.

I received my turntable a few weeks ago and we have been loving it. Sound quality is perfect. Super easy to use. My girlfriend loves listening to her Taylor Swift vinyles and me The Beatles. Strongly recommend this item!

After my last one broke, I wanted to get another one that is simple to use. I think this is a really good turntable. It’s easy to put together, to use and connect through Bluetooth. The records sound really good. For the discount that I bought it for, I feel like I got a really good turntable for a really great price.

I purchased the Audio-Technica LP70XBT as a Christmas gift and it was a huge hit. The sound quality is excellent—clear, warm, and well-balanced—and the Bluetooth connectivity makes it incredibly easy to use. As a first-time vinyl player purchase, this was a great choice: easy to set up, well-built, and very user-friendly, yet it still delivers impressive sound. It performs far beyond its price point and is perfect for beginners and vinyl lovers alike.

Being a gray-haired senior, I’ve been around long enough to remember when playing vinyl records on a turntable was the norm and your only other alternatives to listen to quality hi-fidelity music was either FM radio or a reel-to-reel tape deck. Nothing was more exciting than to run down to the local record or department store to get the latest cellophane-wrapped Beatles LP, found alphabetized by artist in the racks of records! Fast-forward to the present day and it’s interesting to note that turntables physically haven’t really changed all that much, but how they connect is a different story. The Audio-Technica AT-LP70XBT turntable gives you the option to connect to a stereo receiver either the old-fashioned way using RCA-jack cables (included), or by connecting via the newer wireless Bluetooth technology. Using Bluetooth means you basically don’t really need a receiver at all…so you can connect directly to any Bluetooth audio device, including wireless headphones, earbuds, or speakers. Making the connection using Bluetooth is as simple as putting your listening device in pairing mode, then pressing and holding the Bluetooth button on the turntable for two seconds. I discovered that the switch on the rear of the turntable needs to be set to “Line/Aux” when using Bluetooth. If you connect using the RCA cables to a stereo receiver and it has “Phono” inputs, then this switch needs to be set to “Phono”. That’s it, couldn’t be simpler! Also make sure when connecting to a receiver that you connect the ground wire, or you will hear a horrible humming sound. To make it easy, the ground wire is conveniently part of the RCA cable. I didn’t see any mention of this in the instructions. The turntable was an easy setup right out of the box. Of course, having prior experience with turntables was a bonus in my case. Fortunately, the instructions should be able to quickly guide you effortlessly through the setup process. About the only other thing I found missing in the instructions was how to install the dust cover, but it’s easy to figure out without too much trouble and it’s pretty self-evident how it attaches. The operation and features of the turntable itself are basic and unlike higher end equipment, there’s nothing to adjust and that’s probably a good thing for most people just wanting to listen to records. There’s no fussing with things like adjusting tonearm balance, anti-skating force, or platter speed. Those are things best left to audiophiles who are likely to spend thousands of dollars on expensive high-end turntables. I found the tonearm works smoothly and quietly with simple start and stop button controls. With the AT-LP70XBT model, you need to lift the dust cover for button access, while some of the other Audio-Technica models have buttons on the front of the turntable. I’m not sure which is better, but I think I like the cleaner look of the AT-LP70XBT better. While the phono cartridge is fixed on the tonearm and can’t be upgraded, at least the stylus can be replaced if and when it wears out or becomes damaged in transport. There is a clip on the tonearm support to lock it down for obvious safety reasons when moving the turntable, not only to protect the stylus but also your precious vinyl records if they happen to be left on the turntable. It plays the standard LP record albums at 33 1/3 RPM and comes with an adapter to play 45 RPM records. There is a selector lever switch at the base of the tonearm to select record size, so it’s important to set that switch to 7” when playing 45 RPM records or else the tonearm will set down on the felt platter. The normal setting is 12” for playing 33 1/3 RPM record albums. It’s been years since I have listened to my record collection and it’s fun to hear them again, complete with pops and scratches from hours of playing with reckless abandon. Whether you’re young or old like me, the affordable and easy-to-use AT-LP70XBT turntable from Audio-Technica will bring your dusty old record collection back to life to enjoy once again.

As a first time owner of a record player, this Audio Technica has been fantastic. The ease of use combined with superior build quality and Bluetooth connectivity make this a no-brainer purchase to me. Highly recommend!

Great build quality, user friendly, can swap out the needle, not super expensive, great feature set. No issues on my end. Love this thing.

The overall design is wonderful. Easy to hook up to several top of the line bluetooth speakers. I have several older albums with minor scratches which you would never know when I play them. The quality of the product has impressed me,

I bought this as a gift for my boyfriend. He absolutely loves it. We’ve had no issues with skipping so far. He got an amplifier and Sony speakers, it sounds great. I would say the Bluetooth probably isn’t necessary, as we haven’t used it yet. But overall love the turntable. It’s gorgeous and easy to set up.

This turntable was excellent. It has great audio quaility and is over ease of use out of the box was top notch. This is not you dad’s record player it comes with advancement such as bluetooth which was found to work flawlessly.

Good sound quality and really easy to set up! Bluetooth audio is pretty good, but bumps up several notches once audio cable is added

Good quality at a very reasonable price. Easy to set up and puts out a good sound

Boy,does this take me back, without truly taking me back. That's of course,a good thing. Anyone will gladly tell you that there's a certain sense of style and swagger that comes with taking a vynl record out of its sleeve and placing it on the wheels of steel. It's classy. reflined, and down-right cool. Heck! One could even argue that it's quite romantic to hear the lovely crackling of the staylus dancing over your favorite peace of memory on wax while the lights are dem. Now that the vibe is all set, let's see what we are truly here to talk about, shall we? The Audio technica LP-70XBT is a really cool record player that has the look and feel of the old days of the late 20th century, but still utilzes the perks of today's technology. That tech is bluetooth and I must say, that this is a game-changer for anyone living in small spaces or just someone who doesn't want people bumping into their systen while the party is poppin'. This turn-table is equipted with ability to be placed anywhere in your home and cast it's music to any bluetooth speaker with-in a 30' ratious. If blueetooth isn't your thing and you'd like to go the way of old tried and true receiver set-up, the LP-70XBT has the RCA cables just for that inside the box. You're record collection can be considered one of your most prized possessions and you don't wan anything falling on it while it's in play or while you store you turn-table between plays. So the transparent dust protector is packed in the box. A power cord is in the box and it's real. Not like one of those USB thinggies that require you get your own brick. Nope.this is a real deal phonogragh with the bluetooth flare. There's a switch in the back that allows for phono or line and the stylus can be upgraded and interchangable with another turn-ttable in the line(VM95). The only issues I've got with this one is the felt mat keeps coming off whenever I take my records off the platter. I find that quite annoying. And even thoughit can connect with up to 8 different devices, you can only do playback through one of them at a time. i feelike it was easier to selsect tracks when I was younger. That may have something to do with having older eyes, though. Other than those little qualms, Ireally love this thing. Just a note, though. Records are a bit more expensive now. But a great hobby to have. This would make a great starter table. Enjoy!
