Description

The Audio-Technica LP7X is a premium, fully manual belt-drive turntable designed for serious vinyl listeners who value precision, control, and refined sound quality.

Built with a minimalist aesthetic and high-grade components, it delivers an engaging analogue experience that rewards careful setup and attentive listening.

Ideal for dedicated Hi-Fi systems, the LP7X combines a solid, low-resonance plinth with a heavy acrylic platter and advanced tonearm design.

It is supplied without a cartridge, allowing enthusiasts to pair it with a moving magnet or moving coil cartridge of their choice to suit their system and musical taste.

FEATURES

  • Fully Manual Operation: Offers complete control over playback, appealing to purists who enjoy a hands-on vinyl experience and precise cueing.
  • Belt-Drive Design: Isolates the platter from motor vibrations, delivering smoother rotation and reduced noise for cleaner, more accurate sound.
  • Heavy Acrylic Platter: Enhances speed stability and minimises resonance, resulting in improved clarity, tighter bass, and a more natural presentation.
  • J-ShapedTonearm:  The J-shaped aluminium 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.
  • Adjustable VTA: Allows fine tuning to perfectly match a wide range of cartridges, ensuring optimal performance and system compatibility.
  • High-Quality DC Servo Motor: Maintains consistent rotational speed at 33⅓ and 45 RPM for stable, pitch-accurate playback.
  • Dual RCA Outputs: Enables connection to both MM and MC phono stages, making the LP7X suitable for high-end analogue systems.
  • Rigid MDF Plinth: Finished in sleek black, the anti-resonance plinth provides excellent isolation while complementing modern Hi-Fi setups.
