And I don't think this would be a hobby I get into too much. I just want the big cover arts to my favorite albums and then I'll give them a spin every now and then.

    I bought one to see if I really wanted to get back into vinyl. Turns out I do, and the LP60X has been a terrific way to confirm! So far, mine has been faultless. A couple of general pieces of advice before you purchase: understand that you will need both some form of amplification and speakers. That means either an integrated or power amp, or a receiver--which many will already own. If you have either of those, you can use them with passive speakers. Or you can skip the amp/receiver if you have or buy powered speakers, as nloop recommends. Secondly, be sure to familiarize yourself with the switch on the back of the unit that toggles between line-out and phono. If you select the latter, the turntable will assume you are using a phono pre-amp, and will output low-volume, poor-quality sound. If you are not using a phono pre-amp (and it is likely that few who buy this turntable will), then be sure to select line-out before connecting to the amp/speakers. There are many better turntables out there, some costing more than a small house. But this is an excellent way of figuring out if vinyl is for you before you spend significantly more on a better system. Only one caveat: this will *not* play 78rpm records. If you have a collection of 78s, you will have to look elsewhere.

    There is a model of this turntable that has Bluetooth. Mine does not, which is why I use a separate amplifier. If you get the bluetooth model, you could obviously use bluetooth speakers, as long as they are self-powered (almost all are). I believe the Bluetooth model of this turntable is the AT-LP60XBT.@@Heshkinp

    Hi everyone. Unfortunately I'm still new to all this and don't know much about record players. Can you please help me? I would like to buy my brother a record player for his birthday. He's slowly getting into it and is now very interested in vinyl records. Do you think the AT-LP60X or the AT-LP60XBT would be better? What exactly is the difference? I read something on the Internet about the Bluetooth connection. Does that mean that the AT-LP60X doesn't have Bluetooth or what does the BT stand for on the AT-LP60XBT? Or does it work in reverse? So if my brother also wants to listen to records on his headphones, would that work with both or would only the AT-LP60XBT work? Thank you!

    I have this turntable, connected to the fantastic Marrantz PM700N 2 channel amp (2 x Dali Oberon On Wall speakers and an SVS SB-100 Pr 12 inch sub).The Sound is great. I do have to adjust levels and volume when switching sources. My next step is looking for a preamp for a more consistent listening exeperience. Overall I've been impressed with this entry model and had it 3 years now and I don't see the need for upgrading it yet.

I only wish this turntable had anti-skate or the ability to change cartridges. But for the price I don't expect that kind of modularity. Otherwise, it's a purchase I definitely haven't regretted one bit.

    It depends on the type of speaker, but in theory, yes! You would need the right cable setup, and without seeing your BT speaker I'm not sure which cables would work best. The LP60X comes with RCA phono out cables, so you'd either need a new set of cables to go from the BT speaker into the Turntable, or a RCA to aux adapter set of cables.

    Thank you for the great review. My AT-LP60 arrived today. I set it up and connected it to my Onkyo TX-NR787 receiver. I tried the built in amp and the one in the receiver. They pretty much sound the same. The sound is very muddy and boomy. The high and middle frequencies are missing and the bass is very boomy. Am I doing something wrong. Should I get an external pre-amp. I tried different RCA cables and the results are the same. As a last measure, I hooked up the turntable to my Roland R5 and then my Zoom 4N recorders and recorded the sound to these recorders. I then played back from the two digital recorder into the receiver. The quality improved somewhat. So what do you think it is. Do I have a faulty unit or the built-in preamp is not that good. I am surprised that my Onkyo phono pre-amp did not improve the sound at all. Any idea what is going on. I bought this from B&H in New York. They are my photography equipment vendor of choice. They will take the unit back and replace it if it is defective. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.

    @@bpalpha Thank you for getting back to me and the advice. I am familiar with the SL1200. We had one at our college's TV studio that I used back in the late 80's. For our productions, I was playing licensed music on LP on the SL1200 and recording it to a 1/2" Tascam reel-to-reel recorder. The sound of the SL1200 was fantastic and foolishly I was anticipating a similar sound from the LP60. All the reviews say it is decent but what I have for sound is far from decent. It is outright unacceptable. My wife wanted a turntable and I wanted to go the cheap route not knowing if she will lose interest and I will have wasted my money. As it turns out she loves it and has bought a few records already. She is ok with the sound. I am the one who is being critical. It is outright painful listening to the sound coming from the LP60! For higher end players I was looking at the LP-120, the Fluance RT 82, RT 83 class players or even higher. I just wanted to get by for 2023 and upgrade next year. I have a 5.1 speaker set up with RSL CG25 speakers and their excellent Sub. CD's in particular and Pandora and Spotify sound fantastic on my speaker/receiver combo. What to do? I wanted to limit the budget to less than $400. Any other suggestions besides LP120 and LP140? Thanks.

    @@boristahmasian9604 There could possibly be an issue with your setup, or your LP60 perhaps. I have a Fluance RT85 running through a preamp to pretty good Klipsch speakers, and it sounds amazing. In another room, I have the LP60 connected to Fluance speakers. I continue to be surprised at how well it holds its own. It's not as good as the Fluance, but in no world would I call the sound "unacceptable", and most reviewers who I'm sure have better ears than I do would say the same. The bad sound quality you're describing I have definitely heard on other budget record players, but not the LP60.

    @@LifeBeforeSmartphones Thank you for your reply. I sent the LP60 back and got a Fluance RT82 and the sound through my Onkyo receiver is still bland. Not wanting to spend a lot more on this new hobby we have picked up I ordered a DJPre-II preamp and got very good sound out of the RT82. The issue is the DJPre has a low buzzing and crackling noise I can't get rid of. I tried different RCA and grounding cables to no avail. Finally I narrowed the problem to the RCA jacks in the back of the DJPre. They are too close to each other and create a terrible crosstalk that does not go away no matter what you try. I tired and sent two of those back that had the same problem. Finally I got a Fosi Box X2 and this one is a solid, quiet unit but sonically it does not sound as good as the DJPre. I may have to go to a Mani2 or iFi Zen for better quality. What are you using for preamp for your RT85?

    The lp60x has a switch between line out and phono. If you choose line out you are using the phono preamp inside the turntable and so you can connect it to an amplifier or receiver. If you choose phone you MUST connect to a phono preamp or a receiver that has phono amp section. I tried it to an amp and the sound is thin with too highs and no lows that’s because de phono preamp is an amp with an equalization that increases bass and decrease highs. If your receiver lacks phono input you MUST choose line out … or buy a dedicated phono preamp.

    The reason of adding an external preamp is that one can assume that the internal phono preamp is not of the best quality but it is difficult to say, it depends on the overall quality of your setup. If you want just it yo sound ok you DON’T NEED an external phono preamp if you choose line out

    Hey I have a pretty simple question. Lets say I were to buy the Bluetooth model of this turntable. Would I still be able to buy wired speakers and connect them wired to the turntable even if it’s the Bluetooth model? And still get that same good analog sound quality? I’m thinking of buying the Bluetooth model in case I want to connect it to something else, but most of the time just connect it to some wired speakers such as the Edifier R1280T speakers for example.

    This is a perfectly fine turntable, and sounds very good indeed; however, you CANNOT upgrade the stylus with any of those others that you showed…the cartridge is an AT-LP3600L, and it will only take - for this turntable - another ATN3600 stylus. I believe that LP Gear sells an eliptical ‘upgrade’ stylus for it, but at this tracking force of 3gms, I wouldn’t recommend it (too sharp for this weight - which is perfectly fine for the supplied spherical/conical stylus). Other than that, it’s a great turntable, and won’t hurt your records, but will play them well with plenty of detail, and a lovely overall sound presentation.

That same spark of vividness that is lost with Bluetooth.If you want to use Bluetooth do it yourself a favor use digital streaming platforms with no high res , just compressed sources. To use Bluetooth from vinyl implies you have to convert analogue to digital with a low cost device like this then compress with Bluetooth and then use usually a headphone which in general has no Audiophile quality. That is ok with low res streaming. But you are dealing with vinyl because you want to appreciate that little difference in quality. Bluetooth, away
