Product Information

Enjoy a turntable that’s built on heritage, but built with the modern listener in mind. Those seeking the best space, detail and dynamic range this turntable can offer should undoubtedly hook up a good quality external phono preamp, and when you do, you’re in for a treat – it’s a superb turntable at this price. Audio Technica AT-LP3XBT Review – The Bottom Line

AT-LP3XBT Fully Automatic AT-LP3XBT-WH Audio-Technica Consumer AT-LP3XBT Fully Automatic AT-LP3XBT-WH

Having spent around a month with the LP3XBT set up in my living room, the automatic operation made playing records more inclusive, as my wife has never really felt confident using our manual turntable. Audio Technica’s LP3XBT is a fully automatic turntable based on their popular LP3 model. As the model number suggests, the latest incarnation brings the convenience of Bluetooth connectivity, but it doesn’t stop there…

Fully Automatic Turntable: The Audio-Technica AT-LP3XBT belt-drive turntable offers fully automatic operation, so you can simply press the Start button to begin play and the Stop button to lift and return the tone arm and shut off the turntable (the stop function occurs automatically when a record has played all the way through). If you prefer manual control, a hydraulically damped lift control allows the stylus to be precisely and safely lowered and raised at any point on a record. The AT-LP3XBT is a fully automatic turntable designed to deliver outstanding analogue sound with enhanced Bluetooth® wireless technology.

In Bluetooth output mode, or using the built-in phono output the sound boxes in slightly, and instrument separation becomes slightly less defined, but this is typical of any built-in phono stage. In a casual listening space, such as a living room, though, you’d be hard-pressed to tell the difference. Absolutely wonderful turntable! Finally listening to albums I haven't heard in decades. The quality of the sound is better than I could have imagined. Seriously, this is simply a fabulous turntable. It's a five star product!!
