A perfect balance of technology and design, the sleek contemporary lines of the AT-LP5 turntable grace any room in the home while delivering performance features born out of Audio-Technicas rich analog heritage. The direct-drive engine provides playback for both 33 1/ 3 rd & 45 RPM records with a cast aluminium platter and thick damping mat housed together in a structure that has been engineered for minimum chassis resonance, while skilfully retaining the discreet look that complements todays listening environments. The J-shaped tonearm, engineered to minimise tracking error, harks back to the original Audio-Technica designs of the 1960s & 70s complementing the AT-LP5s clean lines and comes fitted with Audio- Technicas lightweight AT-HS10 headshell and the exclusive AT95EX Dual Moving Magnet cartridge. Created specifically for the AT-LP5 turntable, the AT95EX cartridge delivers extended frequency and transient response through new materials selected by Audio-Technicas cartridge experts in Japan. With great attention paid to the complete analog signal path, subtle features such as the gold-plated u-shaped connections of the headshell, the choice of using both the internal or an external phono pre-amplifier, and a stable high-rated internal mains power supply with enhanced grounding, the audio reproduction credentials of the AT-LP5 are assured… while the looks simply speak for themselves.
