Choose in-store pickup at checkout and we’ll have it ready for collection within 1–2 business days.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe AT-LPA2 is the finest turntable Audio-Technica has ever developed, designed to reveal the purity of analogue audio.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAssembled 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 minimise resonance, which can cause noise and distortion in the signal chain, while maximising 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. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-hero__expanded-text\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe AT-LPA2 features a high-density, 30 mm transparent acrylic chassis and 20 mm platter to provide exceptional stability and vibration damping for pure, uncoloured sound. Exclusively designed heavy-duty, height-adjustable feet isolate the turntable from vibration. The mass of the acrylic platter also allows it to spin at a consistent speed. Additionally, an optical sensor, positioned under the spindle, monitors platter rotation to maintain an accurate speed of 33-1\/3 or 45 RPM.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo further reduce unwanted noise, we’ve moved the controls and power supply into a separate unit – a feature typically found only on more expensive turntables – thereby isolating the turntable’s sensitive audio components from electrical interference associated with powering and operating the turntable’s motor. This isolation ensures the quietest performance possible, so you hear only the music from your records, not electrical noise.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe AT-LPA2 comes with a pre-mounted\u003cspan\u003e AT-OC9XEN\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003emoving coil cartridge, which features a nude elliptical stylus (0.3 x 0.7 mil) and high-purity PCOCC coils. The AT-OC9XEN cartridge is designed to capture every nuance of your records with stunning clarity, while providing outstanding channel separation. The lower mass of the moving coil structure (compared to moving magnet cartridges) allows the stylus to react more quickly to changes in the record groove, resulting in more detailed audio reproduction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe cartridge comes mounted to an exclusive machined-aluminium headshell with azimuth adjustment that attaches to the straight, carbon-fibre tonearm. Engineered specifically for this turntable, the new 8.8-inch tonearm also offers VTA adjustment. The lightweight, anti-resonant tonearm tracks smoothly and precisely, utilising a highly accurate, finely adjustable string-type anti-skate mechanism to counteract any inward pull and maintain proper channel balance. In addition, the tonearm includes two counterweight options (110 g and 130 g) to allow you to use a wide variety of other cartridges, should you so choose.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith its clean, modern look, advanced components, precision engineering, and ease of setup, the AT-LPA2 is your entry into the world of pure analogue audio.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv
