Audio-Technica AT-LP70XBT Fully Automatic Wireless Belt-Drive Turntable

With the Audio-Technica AT-LP70XBT Fully Automatic Wireless Belt-Drive Turntable you can listen to your vinyl over Bluetooth-enabled speakers, headphones, or other devices, including those that support the high-quality Qualcomm® aptX™ Adaptive audio codec.

This user-friendly turntable plays both 33-1/3 and 45 RPM records and, in addition to its Bluetooth wireless technology, has a built-in switchable phono preamp that allows the turntable to connect to a home stereo, powered speakers, or another component, with or without a dedicated phono input.

At the heart of the AT-LP70XBT is a top-notch phono cartridge for unmatched, high-fidelity audio. Built with Audio-Technica’s industry-leading phono cartridge expertise, the AT-VM95C is a versatile, superior-performance cartridge that other turntables in this class simply can’t match. Integrated into the J-shaped tonearm, the AT-VM95C cartridge with a 0.6 mil conical stylus offers excellent channel separation and low distortion for outstanding tonal quality.

To further personalize vinyl listening, the stylus can also be easily upgraded with any other styli (elliptical, micro linear, or Shibata) in our VM95 Series, offering unprecedented customization for a turntable in this category.

To ensure peak sound performance, the AT-LP70XBT includes a three-piece, anti-resonance chassis that provides a solid foundation to dampen unwanted noise for improved sound quality. The included AC adapter further reduces noise as the AC/DC conversion is moved to the outside of the chassis to limit any unfavorable noise.
