The AT-LP7X fully manual belt-drive turntable blends analog excellence with style and versatility. Featuring a dense MDF plinth and acrylic platter to minimize unwanted resonance and vibration, this elegant, matte-black turntable delivers sound thats just as clean and refined as its appearance.
In designing the LP7X, Audio Techica paid special attention to chassis geometry, ensuring that the platter, spindle, and tonearm were optimally positioned for accurate, distortion-free tracking. The J-shaped aluminum tonearm, inspired by classic A-T models of the 1960s and 70s, features a dual-axis gimbal with precision ball bearings to further enhance tracking performance.
The turntable comes with Audio Technica AT-LT10 headshell and AT-VM95E BK (black) cartridge with 0.3 x 0.7 mil elliptical stylus, providing excellent channel separation and low distortion for outstanding tonal quality. For easy customization, the stylus can be replaced or interchanged with other styli in the VM95 line, offering a wide choice of options for every budget and application.
The AT-LP7X is ideal for those interested in experimenting with alternate cartridges. The tonearms VTA (vertical tracking angle) adjustment and 16 g subcounterweight allow you to use a broad range of other cartridges and headshells with a combined weight of up to 23.5 g. (A 32 g subcounterweight, available separately, enables the use of even heavier cartridge/headshell combinations. ) With its built-in switchable phono pre-amplifier, the AT-LP7X also gives you the option of using MC (moving coil) cartridges.
The turntables 20 mm acrylic platter is driven by an optical sensor-monitored motor that ensures a continuously accurate platter rotation speed of 33-1/3 or 45 RPM. The motor is mounted on vibration-dampening rubber bushings designed to decouple the motor from the plinth, minimizing the transmission of mechanical noise and oscillations. An external switching power supply isolates the AC-to-DC conversion to prevent it from adding any electrical interference, and the turntables spring-based, height-adjustable isolation feet offer excellent protection against external noise.
The AT-LP7X comes with a detachable RCA output cable (dual RCA male to dual RCA male with ground), 45 RPM adapter, and removable dust cover. Versatile Cartridge Configuration
Combined, the turntables AT-VM95 cartridge, VTA (vertical tracking angle) adjustment, and 16 g subcounterweight expand your configuration options. Upgrade to a more refined VM95 stylus or experiment with different cartridge/headshell combinations (up to 23.5 g total). Add the optional 32 g subcounterweight (available separately) and work with combinations up to 28.5 g. Smooth, Accurate Rotation
The stainless-steel spindle features a thermal-plastic, sheet-type bearing at its base, ensuring low-friction rotation thats precisely maintained at 33-1/3 or 45 RPM by the turntables speed-sensor system. Acrylic Platter
The high-density acrylic platter dampens vibrations for supremely quiet playback, allowing the brilliance and detail of your vinyl records to shine through. Excellent Tracking
The chassis and tonearm geometry of the AT-LP7X have been designed to ensure optimal lateral tracking for distortion-free playback. Additional Features
- Fully manual,
belt-drive operation with two speeds: 33-1/3 and 45 RPM
- Heavy 40 mm MDF (medium density fiberboard) cabinet construction reduces resonance and vibration for clearer sound
- Motor features a speed-sensor system to maintain accurate platter rotation speed
- 20 mm-thick, high-density acrylic platter offers high rotational inertia to spin records at a consistent speed (no platter mat required)
- J-shaped tonearm with adjustable VTA (vertical tracking angle)
- AT-VM95E BK (black) cartridge ( 0.3 x 0
