Audio-Technica AT-LPW40WN Turntable
Design suitable for your home
The AT-LPW40WN is a fully manual, belt-drive turntable designed to give you optimal high fidelity audio reproduction from vinyl. It features an aesthetically pleasing anti-resonance MDF (medium density fiberboard) plinth with simulated walnut wood veneer to limit low frequency acoustical feedback and a sensor-monitored motor to ensure accurate platter rotation speeds at 33-1/3 and 45 RPM.
Audio-Technica AT-LPW40WN Turntable Setup
The turntable includes a straight carbon-fiber tonearm with adjustable tracking force and an AT-HS4 universal ½"-mount headshell with an AT-VM95E Dual Moving Magnet phono cartridge.
