Audio Technica AT-LPA2 Fully Manual Belt-Drive Turntable

The AT-LPA2 is the finest turntable Audio-Technica has ever developed, designed to reveal the purity of analogue audio.

Assembled from transparent acrylic, the AT-LPA2 fully manual belt-drive turntable combines contemporary aesthetics with analogue expertise, while remaining incredibly easy to set up and use. We designed the AT-LPA2 to minimise resonance, which can cause noise and distortion in the signal chain, while maximising detailed audio reproduction of your vinyl records with crystal-clear accuracy. Not only is the acrylic stunning, it is also an ideal material for turntable construction, greatly reducing reverberations that might otherwise affect sound clarity.
