I own both the AT 120 old version and the new AT120 version and basically the new version eliminates the problems with the old version but does loose some of the quality build found in the old version. The new version is lighter does not have the arm height adjustment and comes with a better AT cartridge fitted has phono jack's and a earth connection, the power supply is via a plug in adapter and the mains hum which the first version had has gone. I Recommend changing the cartridge for a better rounded sound I went for the Goldring E2 but any of the E series is a good choice there are many others available but go up in price as the supplied cartridge is bottom of the AT range. The photos show the two versions and the difference in tone arms. As to the first version it is still a great turntable but the niggles have been ironed out. Happy listening. Review: ¡Impresionante calidad-precio! - Estoy súper contenta con esta compra. El tocadiscos AT-LP120XUSB-BK es justo lo que necesitaba para actualizar mi set up Se escucha súper nítido y con mucha vida. Realmente se nota la diferencia comparado con otros modelos más baratos. Lo saqué de la caja, lo armé en un momento (las instrucciones son claras) y ya estaba sonando. (Les recomiendo adquirir una báscula para pesar el brazo phono captor). No es un juguete; es un equipo serio que sé que me durará años. El brazo y el pitch control funcionan de maravilla. ​Si estás pensando en dar el salto a un tocadiscos de buena calidad sin gastar una fortuna, este es. Lo recomiendo totalmente para cualquiera, desde el que empieza hasta el que ya tiene su colección. Una compra 10/10 en desertcart. ## Features - Audio Technica AT-LP120XUSB echo ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B07N3S4X3P | | Best Sellers Rank | 83,292 in Musical Instruments & DJ ( See Top 100 in Musical Instruments & DJ ) 157 in DJ & VJ Belt Drive Turntables | | Box Contents | AT-HS6 headshell 1.9m (6.2') with montiertem AT-VM95E phono cartridge, dual RCA (male) to dual RCA (male) USB cable with counterweight, felt mat, and removable hinged dust cover, and 45 RPM adapter | | Brand | Audio-Technica | | Brand Name | Audio-Technica | | Colour | Black | | Compatible Devices | Amplifiers, Speakers, Audio Systems, Personal Computers | | Connectivity Technology | USB | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 6,684 Reviews | | Cycles | Direct drive | | Enclosure Material | Plastic | | Global Trade Identification Number | 04961310148751 | | Included components | AT-HS6 headshell 1.9m (6.2') with montiertem AT-VM95E phono cartridge, dual RCA (male) to dual RCA (male) USB cable with counterweight, felt mat, and removable hinged dust cover, and 45 RPM adapter Included components AT-HS6 headshell 1.9m (6.2') with montiertem AT-VM95E phono cartridge, dual RCA (male) to dual RCA (male) USB cable with counterweight, felt mat, and removable hinged dust cover, and 45 RPM adapter See more | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 35.1L x 45.2W x 14H centimetres | | Item Weight | 9140 Grams | | Item weight | 9140 Grams | | Manufacturer | ZERKAR | | Manufacturer Part Number | AT-LP120XUSB-BK | | Material | Plastic | | Maximum Rotational Speed | 78 RPM | | Maximum rotational speed | 78 RPM | | Model Name | Audio Technica AT-LP120XUSB | | Model Number | AT-LP120XUSB-BK | | Power Consumption Size | 3 Watts | | Power Source | Corded Electric | | Product Features | Direct Drive, Adjustable Anti-Skate Control, Variable Pitch Control | | Signal Format | Analog | | Signal-to-Noise Ratio | 100 dB | | Special feature | Direct Drive , Adjustable Anti-Skate Control, Variable Pitch Control | | Style Name | Professional | | Unit Count | 1.0 count | | Voltage | 110 Volts, 220 Volts | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Audio-Technica - **Colour:** Black - **Compatible devices:** Amplifiers, Speakers, Audio Systems, Personal Computers - **Item weight:** 9140 Grams - **Material:** Plastic - **Maximum rotational speed:** 78 RPM - **Model name:** Audio Technica AT-LP120XUSB - **Special feature:** Direct Drive, Adjustable Anti-Skate Control, Variable Pitch Control - **Style:** Professional ## Images ![Audio Technica AT-LP120XUSB-BK USB Turntable -Direct Drive - Fully Manual - USB (Black) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71Z-XF+7ChL.jpg) ![Audio Technica AT-LP120XUSB-BK USB Turntable -Direct Drive - Fully Manual - USB (Black) - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71tO4CCW03L.jpg) ![Audio Technica AT-LP120XUSB-BK USB Turntable -Direct Drive - Fully Manual - USB (Black) - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71diOV6oGyL.jpg) ![Audio Technica AT-LP120XUSB-BK USB Turntable -Direct Drive - Fully Manual - USB (Black) - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81iK2dITJdL.jpg) ![Audio Technica AT-LP120XUSB-BK USB Turntable -Direct Drive - Fully Manual - USB (Black) - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61vS+A7VwOL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Ok,..in plain english,...can i plug this tt into external speakers? that's all i want it for. if yes,...what type of speakers?** A: Yes you can... The turntable has a built-in preamp. You want to buy powered speakers. They sell tons of them now. The best I have heard were KRK powered speakers. To get a good idea of what’s available, check out the needledoctor or crutchfield websites. **Q: So, since this turntable has a built in preamp, does this mean I can use passive speakers? Or do I need powered speakers?** A: No. You'll need powered speakers or you'll need to plug it into an amp to use passive speakers. "Preamp" = pre (before) amplifier. Preamps and phono amps take the very low signal from the stylus and amplify it to a level that an amplifier can use. AND (the reason record players need phono-specific preamps instead of a standard preamp) the preamp/phonoamp also decodes the RIAA format that all albums since the 1950s use, which is proprietary and needs a specific type of decoding to play the music. **Q: I have always owned belt drive turntables. I have read that direct drive can be noisy. How is this one as far as rumble?** A: Rumble is not referred to on the manufacturers website. The signal to noise ratio is stated as greater than 50dB. That means the rating could actually be only 51dB but the exact number is not stated. Here are a few specs copied and pasted from the website. Motor - DC servo motor Starting Torque - >1.0 kgf.cm Wow and Flutter - <0.2% (WTD) @ 3 kHz (JIS) Signal-to-Noise Ratio - >50 dB Output Level - Pre-amp “PHONO”: 4 mV nominal at 1 kHz, 5 cm/sec Pre-amp “LINE”: 240 mV nominal at 1 kHz, 5 cm/sec **Q: Will this play an old 78 slate lp?** A: Yes, but you may want to buy a stylus (needle) or cartridge made specifically for your old monaural (mono) 78s. The stylus and cartridge that come with this unit are for modern stereo recordings on vinyl. The stylus itself might be damaged by use on old 78s. Changing styli and cartridge is a fairly simple process on this turntable, and styli and cartridges are easily available at many stores, as well as online. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great place to start with vinyl *by D***N on 7 August 2022* If you are looking for a do anything good quality turntable this new version is a great choice not in the league of Rega, Pro-ject and the likes but does a good job for little money and is easy to upgrade.

Muy contento. *by O***A on 17 March 2026* Calidad precio excelente. No utilizo el phono integrado, sino el de mi amplificador, y suena de maravilla. Tras nivelar bien el tocadiscos y ajustar el peso del brazo y antiskating suena de lujo. Revise la alineación de la cápsula y aguja y vienen clavados, está ya ajustada y no ha habido que hacer nada. ## Frequently Bought Together - Audio-Technica AT-LP120XUSB-BK Direct-Drive Turntable (Analog & USB), Fully Manual, Hi-Fi, 3 Speed, Convert Vinyl to Digital, Anti-Skate and Variable Pitch Control Black - Edifier R1280T Powered Bookshelf Speakers - 2.0 Active Near Field Studio Monitor Speaker - Wooden Enclosure - 42 Watts RMS Power - Big Fudge Vinyl Record Cleaning Kit - 4-in-1 Record Cleaner Solution - Includes Ultra-Soft Velvet Record Brush, Cleaning Liquid, Stylus Brush and Storage Pouch --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.in/products/202465460-audio-technica-at-lp120xusb-bk-usb-turntable-direct-drive-fully](https://www.desertcart.in/products/202465460-audio-technica-at-lp120xusb-bk-usb-turntable-direct-drive-fully) --- *Product available on Desertcart India* *Store origin: IN* *Last updated: 2026-07-22*
