Tips For Better Performance

Tips For Better Performance

When opening or closing the turntable cover, handle it gently, moving it either at the center or equally from both sides.

Do not touch the stylus tip with your fingers; avoid bumping the stylus on the turntable mat or a record’s edge.

Clean the stylus tip frequently, using a soft brush with a back-to-front motion only.

If you use a stylus cleaning fluid, use it very sparingly.

Wipe the dust cover and turntable housing gently with a soft cloth. Use only a small amount of mild detergent solution to clean the turntable and dust cover.

Never apply harsh chemicals or solvents to any part of the turntable system.

Prior to moving the turntable, always unplug it from the AC outlet and fasten the tone arm on the tone arm rest with the vinyl twist-tie.

Whether you're a seasoned audiophile or a casual listener, the AT-LP60 offers a blend of user-friendly features and sophisticated technology.

One of the standout characteristics of the AT-LP60 is its fully automatic operation. With the simple push of a button, the tonearm engages and automatically lowers onto your vinyl record, enabling a seamless listening experience.

By eliminating the need for an external pre-amp, Audio-Technica ensures that any listener can enjoy high-fidelity sound without complicated setups.

The construction of the AT-LP60 includes a robust plinth designed to minimize resonance and external noise interference. This attention to build quality not only enhances the aesthetics of the unit but also contributes to its overall performance, giving users a reliable platform for their vinyl collections.

Moreover, the AT-LP60 comes with a detachable hinged dust cover, which protects the turntable and records from dust and debris. This thoughtful inclusion highlights Audio-Technica’s commitment to durability and maintenance ease.

In summary, the Audio-Technica AT-LP60 turntable combines style, user-friendliness, and excellent sound quality, making it a perfect entry point for anyone looking to dive into the world of vinyl records.
