The Audio-Technica AT-LPW50PB is a fully manual belt-drive turntable engineered for high-fidelity vinyl playback. It has a 30 mm anti-resonance MDF plinth with a high-gloss piano-black finish to reduce low-frequency acoustic feedback, a sensor-monitored motor providing stable 33-1/3 and 45 RPM platter speeds, and a detachable dual RCA output cable plus a built-in selectable phono preamp for connection to components with or without a phono input.

Advantages

The AT-LPW50PB combines a dense anti-resonance plinth and precise motor control to minimize vibration and ensure consistent rotation speed. It includes a straight carbon-fibre tonearm with adjustable tracking force and an AT-HS4 universal ½"-mount headshell fitted with an AT-VM95E dual moving magnet cartridge, offering a 0.3 x 0.7 mil elliptical stylus and compatibility with all VM95 replacement styli. The built-in selectable phono preamp and detachable RCA cable simplify integration into existing systems.

How to use

Place the turntable on a stable, level surface away from speakers to reduce acoustic feedback. Attach the detachable RCA cable to your amplifier or receiver, selecting the phono input if available or switching the built-in preamp on if using a line input. Fit and balance the tonearm, set the tracking force according to the AT-VM95E cartridge specifications, and select the desired platter speed (33-1/3 or 45 RPM). Lower the tonearm manually onto the record to begin playback and raise it at the end of the side before moving the tonearm back to its rest.

Recommendations

Use a level and vibration-isolated surface, keep the turntable dust-covered when not in use, and replace the stylus according to listening hours and wear. When changing to a different VM95-series stylus, follow the cartridge manufacturer's instructions to ensure optimal tracking and to avoid damage to records.
