Excellent review. This unit sounds great for me.
I was recently told by someone anything under $1000 is crap. I'm calling BS on that. Some have bills and kids to feed, so I'm calling for a moratorium on the term "beginner turntable". It feels derogatory. Let's go with "quality affordable".

Note: not a comment on this review or Bob. Just me ranting. Bob is the man!

"Audiophiles" are the biggest gatekeepers you will find. I have a $2000 turntable and I think this thing is sweet. Almost want to buy one for my other living room or as a travel table but I already have the soundburger for travel. It's not going to ruin anyone's records and it will sound plenty decent. This would be my go to recommendation for anyone who wants to get into the hobby without stressing over technical details. My 1-up rec would be the Fluance RT81. If you do go for this, spring an extra $50 bux for the bluetooth version just to make an "audiophile" cry.

This was a really good review that made me feel more secure in my purchase. You could have taken the route I have seen of so many others making patronizing remarks to those looking to own a turntable with bluetooth connectivity and you didn't, which I can really appreciate. Not all listeners have the same lifestyles!

[VoicesofMusic]

Excellent turntable for the price, super quiet motor, and automatic feature works perfect. Innovative cue.

[paulmcanear]

I bought this turntable simply to play my old vinyl records through my bluetooth tv sound bar. Nothing fancy, but the sound is amazing, IMHO. Sounds better than my Technics SLD2 in the basement running through the standard wired amp system. Less noise by far. Very surprised. Thanks for your evaluation and upgrade recommendations, but honestly, I couldn't be happier as is.

Pro tip for gift givers: don’t just spring a turntable on someone if you yourself are not already in the vinyl world. Talk to them and find out what features they need. Having a great table with everything they need will far surpass the excitement of a surprise gift that doesn’t have everything they need. My old man bought me the Sony LX310bt for Xmas last year and he paid about what this cost and my table is absolute crap compared to this. It’s essentially an LP60bt with the Sony name on it. No adjustments whatsoever. Doesn’t track properly. I’ve been searching for something that can do everything I need in this price range and AT has always done me well in the headphone world so this might have to be my next (actual first) table. Great video and info, thanks Bob 🤘🏻

[daviddoyle]

Thank you the great honest review. Lp70 will be my beginner choice! Love the review style!

[kar]

Thanks for the review.
I am a more digital guy but wanted to to supply support to my fav bands more then just hearing the stuff via streaming. So ... Starting and collecting vinyl of the favorite lps would be a nice thing.

I was looking for a no brainer no play them and just stopped at the lp70...

You approved that this tt is a no brainer at this price for causal use. Thank sir.

[winyyy]

Hi ! Thank you so much for this video.
I received it some times ago in white. I bought a white acrylic mat and the green cartridge and i enjoy since then.
Mainly my BTS albums but remember, you said no judgement zone 😌
Thank you for the kind confidence you gave me. I was almost sure to not waste my money when i clicked to pay

[dragonknight]

I got this one the week it was released, no regrets at all. I love the stylus upgradeability, there is a stylus for every occasion from elliptical to Microlinear. I started off wireless then got a proper receiver in and hard lined it, either way it sounds great. I do not see why anyone would want to spend more, you wont get much more if anything to be honest. Very good job Audio Technica, and great review good sir!

[DrBovdin]

Nice, a fully automatic one. I think that is such a cool feature. This sounded like it is a quite nice alternative.

I am myself using a Dual 1019. Fully mechanical automation from the 1960s – 16, 33.3, 45, _and_ 78 RPM. A dynamic tracking tone arm with adjustable cueing point and drop-down speed. Amazing piece of engineering. With a modern Ortofon cartridge it is a great source. The dynamic tracking also makes it extremely tolerant for less than ideal levelling (just search for videos of people doing tricks with it playing records in seemingly impossible geometries). The only downside (at least if one needs to relocate it) is that it weighs… a lot. Only the platter weighs in at 3.5 kg or thereabouts (7.5 lbs. for the metrically impaired). That means that the speed is extremely consistent unless your local mains frequency varies wildly (it does use a synchronous motor), and once it starts spinning it keeps spinning…

just ordered mine im soo excited for my first turntable

[AnnesleyPlaceDub]

Superb upload.
Love from Dublin 🎶 🇮🇪

[Baxxter]

Thanks for the review! I've been researching a bit after having a junk starter tables motor go wonky on me. After watching several of your videos this looks like the right fit for "my kids" ;)

[MadBonkersYes]

This is a really neat modern turntable! Bluetooth makes it perfect for people who want to play around with vinyl on the side and are out of inputs. I'm genuinely tempted to get this, thanks for sharing this, I could actually put it relatively far from my speakers still within bluetooth range.

[phatdad]

ive been looking at this turn table for awhile now. thanks for the breakdown and not an unboxing. ill be picking this one up in few weeks

[annajohnson]

I have one, hooked up to Edifier speakers. I LOVE it!!

[amygutierrez]

My husband has wanted a vinyl record for years so he's getting one for Christmas this year. Super overwhelming being a newbie so I really appreciate your review. You sold me on the LP70xBT but do you have any suggestions about speakers? The Audio Technica Bookshelf Speakers are back ordered until March 2025. Thanks and I appreciate any feedback!

[TheFrugalAudiophile]

If the LP 70 would’ve been around when I purchased my RT 81 a couple of years ago, I probably would have chosen it instead. I am very happy with my RT 81, but I would like an automatic turntable. I am visually impaired and sometimes queueing up a record with a manual table can be a bit of a challenging. I have gotten used to it though and the RT 81 is a fantastic table!

[lauracarpenter]

Thanks for the review. I was considering the LP6O-BT but this sounds like a better unit.
Just want some of my youth best memories and this sounds like the one.
