AT-LPA2

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

Assembled from transparent acrylic, the AT-LPA2 fully manual belt-drive turntable combines contemporary aesthetics with analog expertise, while remaining incredibly easy to set up and use. We designed the AT-LPA2 to minimize resonance, which can cause noise and distortion in the signal chain, while maximizing 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.

* Please note: The AT-OC9XEN MC cartridge’s low (0.35 mV) output voltage also requires the use of a step-up transformer or moving coil phono preamp to boost the signal.
