“A plug and play turntable that's an absolute pleasure to listen to... If you want a turntable you can plug straight into your amp and play, with the added bonus of USB output, there is nothing better at this price; the AT-LP5 sounds fantastic

It’s because, as well as equipping you with the extra technology that for many people will prove extremely useful, Audio-Technica has what matters spot on - this is a turntable that is both a pleasure to use and to listen to.

The only way to our minds you could improve on so comprehensive a package as this is to up your budget fairly significantly. “ – What Hifi, April 2016 review

“ORIGINAL J-SHAPED TONEARM”

The original J-shaped tonearm, engineered to minimise tracking error, harks back to the original Audio-Technica designs of the 1960's and 70's, complementing the AT-LP5's clean lines and minimal design.

“EXCLUSIVELY DESGINED CARTRIDGE”

The AT-LP5 comes with the AT95EX high performance cartridge, exclusively designed for the turntable, and fitted on an AT-HS10 lightweight headshell; the combination perfectly balanced for the turntable's J-shaped tonearm.

“PERFECT BALANCE OF TECHNOLOGY AND DESIGN”

The direct-drive engine provides playback for both 33 1.3rd and 45 RPM records, with a cast aluminium platter and thick dampling mat, hosued together in a structure that has been engineered for minimum chassis resonance, while reatining a descreet look.
