Are you phasing out song of the day
I bought both because the LP60 had a high tracking force and almost damaged my records.
LP120x still have to this day and is the best. LP120x should be the one for people to buy I wasted I think $400 for both record players.... Should of just bought the LP120x
(This happened two years ago and love my LP120)
Hi,
I'm Amarnath From India,
In making vinyl record, there are some technical doubts about the source audio requirements and groove of any size .
Can you please explain?
How to contact yourself.
Thanks.
Hey tried to reach out to you on Facebook and Instagram. Elusive Disc has the Sade complete collection on vinyl. Not sure if you’d seen that or not.
@Trenton Frederick how is this pertinent to Vinyl Eyezz videos?
"both of them are not crosley cruisers" 💀💀💀 really caught me off guard
BGBJIUTFFR 💀💀💀
@@garrettcarroll5808 I imagine it's waaay cheaper for a reason, and that your records probably don't like the abuse either ;)
I can't believe you missed possibly the biggest advantage of the 120.
Replaceable/Upgradable cartridge!
And the pitch issues of the LP60X, not spinning at the correct speed.
tehnically anything can be replaceable/upgradable if you know what you are doing
I have the 60 and I’ve replaced my cartilage ????
@@DarthMan2008 that was the biggest omission, IMO. I would have also liked to here more about the improvements of the lp120x over the standard 120 since pitch issues and motor noise were known problems with that table.
@@DarthMan2008 you can adjust that underneath!
I have an lp-60xusb turntable since last year. I love it. Keep spinning that vinyl!!!
Awesome! Great turntable AND with USB too! 😄👍
can you add record weight to the LP60x?
@@kauefortuna856 no. That's the 120
Same I have an LP60XBT turntable
What I love about Audio Technica is they have good quality stuff for people that want quality, but dont have the money. Yes. They cut corners, but it's not like the dreaded Cruiser. While I am upgrading soon, I have loved my LP60 for a decade.
I got myself the LP60X about a year ago and I've been having a great time with it. I've never had any speed issues with it whatsoever and it fits me well. Also, I'm from Brazil and the price difference here is absurd. The LP120X costs about four times the price of the LP60X. I know it's no high-end turntable, but I have nothing to complain about it.
Thanks a lot, Jarrett. Keep spinning!
Wow! Didn't know the price for the 120X would be so vastly different over there! Glad you're happy with your LP60X though! Enjoy!
@@vinyleyezz God bless you!
I’ve got the LP-120 and I’m never turning back!
great choice! 👍
I started out with collecting vinyl over a year ago and the LP120X was my turntable of choice. Very nice turntable and I enjoy the manual operation in a weird, vintage way.
It's definitely a satisfying feeling to line up the needle, drop the cue lever, and hear the album spring to life
Very true, the ritual of putting on a record for me also includes the satisfying slow drop by the lift, the needle gently touching the record with all its two grams of tracking force.
@@MeriaDuck Haha, mooi man.
I use my LP60 every day. The auto stop at the end of a record is really useful.
The manual turntables aren't that hard to use either
It sucks for jack white's lazzertro and sgt peppers inner groove on side 2
@@willstarbailey i wondered why the inner groove at the end of my sgt peppers was weird
@@willstarbailey yes i always forget about lazaretto and i’m confused for like a second and then i realize i’m dumb. love that angel light configuration on that record as well!
@@mathiasgustavsen2312 no one said it was.
Another thing that might be important is speed accuracy. The LP60X doesn't have any way to keep speed in check, so it may drift a bit , while the LP120X has quartz lock (and a strobe) to keep itself at the perfect speed.
Does it do that automatically?
Just wanted to say thank you for all your videos man! They helped me ditch my all in one turntable for the LP120X and Micca PB42 speakers and im obsessed with my new setup. I've learned so much from your channel, keep doing your thing! We appreciate you!
The video everyone has been waiting for.
thank you for watching! 😄
Deku
If you can afford it, why not just go for the Technics SL-1500C? Peace.
You’re misinformed
@@RefugeeOfRap No
Been wondering where to start with my journey into vinyl and players and whatnot, remembered seeing the LP60X at my local music shop, saw this video and immediately went out and bought their only one left. Thank you so much for these vids and being clear and concise! Much appreciated.
Just got my lp120x a couple of days ago. Loving it
My daughter has a 60 in her room on powered speakers. I have a 120 in the basement for digitizing old 45s, and I have an LP7 on my main system. AT seems to consistently maintain a high standard on every level of product. I am very happy with all of them.
I'd rather just get the LP60. Mainly due to the massive price difference in my country. I live in Australia and the LP60 is $215 while the LP120 is $519. I honestly don't think the LP120 is worth the extra $300
Got a 120 a few years ago on your recommendation. Still loving it today. Cant get enough of it. Even got a 78 stylus for it so i can get the full benefit. Cracking turntable!
I've moved onto a 1200 MK4 after the 120, no mains buzz and motor rumble and rock steady speed and accurate tonearm geometry which means the cart not need be twisted in slightly
I’ve had the LP60X for a couple years now and it’s perfect for me and my needs.
I got into vinyl collecting a few months ago and purchased the LP60XBT and absolutely love it.
I have an lp60x. Great choice for a first turntable. Relatively cheap and really good quality
Definitely better than any suitcase turntable
Hi, Jarrett, from what i found on the internet, at-lp120X comes with a prealligned cartridge too. So it's not that difficult to set up as well.
I was looking for this video for ages! Thank you!
Started with the 60x and then later upgraded to 120xUSB which is what I have now. I love(d) both, and I bought the 120xusb mostly because I loved the design of the strobe light, the quartz gauge, and the manual tonearm, but the 60 is definitely the best starting point for any beginner. 120xUSB should be the next step up if you're looking for it.
Song of the day: Talk Talk - After the Flood
I’ve had my LP120X for about 2 years now thanks to you. The only problem I’ve had was my needle was already worn out and some minor things but it was overall worth the money especially the build quality of it. I’ve also gotten a lot of compliments about my record player so that’s a plus. Thank you 🙏🏻
Also not to forget:
song of the day:
I Will Be Your Friend - Sade
I have both the lp60 and lp120. Both are great tables in thier own right. The lp120 I use to digitize my vinyl and the lp60 is in the living room for daily listening. People feel more at ease when they see how easy it is to get a record playing. Everyone has said the lp60 sounds amazing with a good record so dont feel bad if you only get the lp60. The only minor thing if any is the lp60 may skip more on imperfections. But even on Daft punk albums it plays without issue. Had both 3 years now.
hello what is your opinion on lack of counterweight..can it damage vinyls?.. i am consider lp60 as my first turntable
the guy at the record shop basically told me lp60 was crap, so i felt like i wasted my money but im glad people are enjoying their lp60
3.5g weight in my scale. In audacity it does got up to 20khz if the record has that high of notes. So is it premium? No. But is it a awesome first or supplement table? Yes.
@@chip48 It won't damage vinyl. The LP60 and 60x do have counterweights implemented into the tonearm by use of a spring. The tension of these springs are good and only bear a tracking force of a little over 3 grams which is ideal for tonearms of this type.
@@navroop121 Yeah, well he just wanted you to spend more money, you know that. The LP60 and 60x have sold incredibly well, and really, they're more like middle of the road turntables rather than true entry level, and the 60x even has designed improvements over the original.
I actually just bought the 120 a few months ago. Compared to my last player, it's an absolute dream and then some. I've never had more fun listening to my records. And it sounds so good as well. I absolutely love it.
same here!
Got my LP60X about a month ago and it's very simple and nice to use.
Went for the 120X for the better quality and upgradable cartridge and needle. Also, the amp I already had is silver; really liked the silver look 🤣.
The cartridge came installed and with needle installed from the factory. I saw in your setup guides that you may have to do this, but to me that seems to be done quite well.
It is still useful to have your setup video as a reference for whenever I need to exchange the needle or upgrade the element.
Had an old sony turntable my mom gave me a couple months back, but had the chance to snag the 120x up and im so happy i got it.
The AT-LP60XUSB is the way to go for ANYONE getting into record/vinyl music !!!
Here’s a story about me that started into listening record music , 3 months ago .....
I started with a Crosley , in less than 24 hours, I got myself the AT-LP60XUSB, and pair it with the Edifier R1280DB active speakers !
In the months to come, and thanks to all the endless nights of watching you amazing Channel, I add on a Rolls V29 pre amp, upgraded all the interconnecting cables to CANARE wires, a white acrylic mat, a record weight, gotten approximately 40 12” and 7” records and religiously clean ALL my records , before / after playing and also my stylus !!!
Thank you 🙏🏼 so much for all the valuable and amazing tips , information and reviews !
Thank you a lot for your review on both! This comes in handy because as a noob I have finally made up mind... and I am going for the LP60X
Many people love vinyl for the additional haptics and having a manual record player even adds another layer of physical interactivity. Makes the whole experience even slightly more engaging and therefore more fun. ✌
You can do that with the LP60 too. It has the start/stop button but if you don’t want to ise it go for it
I just started collecting vinyls 2 weeks ago and thanks to your channel I've been learning a lot, seriously thank you man. Btw I got both Lazaretto (and I cannot wait to see that angel spin) also I found a Portishead's Dummy and from what I heard on spotify I really cannot wait to hear it on vinyl. Again dude thank you for the suggestion.
I’m so glad you got both of those albums! They’re both great but you’re going to be especially amazed at all the features of Lazaretto! 😊👍🎵
@@vinyleyezz I'm having troubles seeing the hologram how do I do that? Also since you recomended Dummy, I wanna pay you back by recomending you Fanc Moody's Dance Move album is just great if you are in the mood for electronic funk, but sadly no vinyl yet (I hope someday we will get it).
I bought the LP60X-BT recently and I love it. I don't have enough room for speakers in my current setup so being able to use my Bluetooth headphones has been great. I've been focusing on collecting albums I already love and hearing them on vinyl has been eye-opening.
BT takes away the purity of analogue
I just started getting into records and your videos are very helpful. I got the LP60x since it was in stock at my local best buy. I wanted to play all the Kalafina records I bought in Japan right away. I exchanged it for the LP120x because the LP60x feels so cheap.
Was it worth the price difference?
Song of the Day: Fear & Delight - The Correspondents
Great video, as always. My first turntable was the AT-LP3, which is very similar to the LP60, but I was getting annoyed with the automatic function and found I wanted more control when I played a record so I upgraded to the 120X USB and I absolutely love it.
Just got my lp120 and It didn’t disappoint...vary pleased...it came with Bluetooth speakers and the sound is amazing
The 120 (with the added Bkuetooth 5.0 headphone connectivity) is a strong combination. My only knock against the 120 is the platter wobble. Audio Technica says "in spec."
Glad to see a new video from you, so thanks for this!
I must say, though, that I don't deem it too helpful to make every point equal. Color options are equivalently advantageous as the cartridge (or ability to upgrade the cartridge)? Why not allot a certain amount of points to each feature, relative to how greatly said feature contributes to the overall value of the turntable (sound quality, stability, upgradability, etc.)? Seems to me that would make for a much more accurate and beneficial comparison.
you're great! thank you for this amazing video. I am starting and you were very clear and helpful!

Ohhh that song just makes me feel good! I always listen to it when taking an exam for school
@@maddieschaefer it’s my favorite out of the 5
Thanks for the great review(s) of the AT-120X turntable. I recently decided to resurrect my vinyl collection and the ‘120X is a fantastic replacement for the Technics turntable I bought in the ‘70s. My choice was largely influenced by your videos!
I’m in the process of loading my collection of about 700 discs into Discogs. Have you ever done a video on setting up a catalog? I’m interested in the process of eating the condition of the media and jacket. More importantly, understanding how to use the information in the run out groove to locate the right version of the pressing.
Finally, your past review of the Grace Records shop in Gilbert AZ was very interesting to me. I’ve live here for years at often shop at SanTan, but had no idea it was there! Thanks for the heads-up!
I have the 60. It suits my needs for the money. Its strange, but back in the day(70's-80s) almost every turntable I came across was automatic. Strange how most are manual today. I really dont understand why though. Heck, I had 2 players back in the 80s that had the metal pole in the middle and you could load 3-4 records on it and when one got done, it played the next one. Dont see many of those around anymore either. As a matter of fact, do they even make new ones with that feature??
Have been trying to look for these as well. They seem super handy. Love the designs of those ones from decades ago!
those automatic record switchers have gone out of fashion now, since vinyl is more about collecting these days than just having a way to listen to music, people don’t wanna drop their records in fear of them getting damaged
@@ando2421 kinda sad, I thought it was great
@@retromediaguy yeah, especially the albums that were designed to be used on a switcher
Great comparison brother. Thank you for the details. and breakdown.
Thank you for watching Greg! 😊
I've had my beloved Trio/Kenwood KD1033 since 1976 and it works beautifully. If I had to change it I would go for the 120 because of the upgrade options.
I originally purchased an LP60x and loved it until I realised it spun a little too fast, highly noticeable when compared with spotify etc. I returned it and opted for the LP120x because it had speed control, but I didn't need it because the speed was calibrated perfectly. I'd definitely recommend the 120x over the 60x
you must have been unlucky and got a defective turntable or something. i have an lp60 and the speed is perfect.
My LP60X will arrive today from Amazon. This video came out just in time. This will be my second turntable since last november I bought a Crosley Cruiser rip off (yeah, you read that right) which just stopped working this week.
It wasn’t even a “genuine” POS Crosley?
@@KingRiverVlogs No, it was a "Byron Statics" suitcase turntable. I bought it for 800 Mexican pesos, less than 50USD. I had it coming, haha.
I got my LP120X like two weeks ago! I love it
I love the 120 because I heard so much great things about it I’ve read so many things about it from Amazon and I love the sound of records and I love the option of playing 3345 and 78 and I also love the pitch control which is wider and I love the forward and reverse buttons which makes it so much easier to play music forwards and backwards. Just by pressing a button which is very handy and also having the pitch lock which is great.
Good review. Helpful. Was looking at purchasing the LP60 for CDN $169. The LP120 is out of my price range right now at CDN $449, but I wondered if the differences were worth the money difference and maybe I should wait and save some more $. So obviously (in my opinion) the LP60 is a clear choice for me. Thanks very much!
I think that because of the ability to adjust tracking force and anti skate as well as changing carts in the 120, it should have a higher score. I bought a 60x and I love it so much more than my moms old classroom all in one from the 70s or 80s. But I am already ready to upgrade. Love the channel!
I recently purchased an AT LP 120XUSB turntable. It is awesome and just has my name all over it. I have on order a MoFi Geo-Disc and a stylus tracking scale so I can really dial in all the settings.
Fell out of my chair laughing when they both got points for not being Crosley Cruisers! 🤣
Jerrett, I have a confession- I watched your channel six years ago and was fascinated, and came back to stay about 2.5 years ago, but I've yet to buy a turntable to this day!
I own a few vinyl records from my childhood (inherited from family) and would love to listen to again one day. My husband has a box of vinyl we both forgot about that we were sorting over the weekend, but he does not own a turntable either. He is planning on selling a lot of his vinyl. But if he expresses any interest in playing any of it, I'm going to send him to your channel or put on some of your videos for us to watch together! Especially if some of his records are ones we can keep... that I could play!
I saw an Audio-Technica LP120X USB online here in Canada in black and ROSE GOLD that kinda pulled at my heartstrings! 😍
Regardless of what I own or don't own, I LOVE your channel Jarrett, I love your content, and you are my absolute favorite vinyl enthusiast out there! Thank you for consistently doing such a phenomenal job with your work!
Fawn 😊
Almost 3 years ago you sold me on the T-120 and I thank You very much for that This turntable will last me the rest of my life Being an older person I play records constantly on my T-120 and I have no problem saying that even though it may be a beginners turntable I have enjoyed this turntable like I have no other in the almost 59 years I've been on earth and again Thank You for your input on this turntable way back when
I’m so glad you like your LP-120! Enjoy all the great music on it! 😊🎵
@@vinyleyezz Thank You I will
Just subscribed cause I just entered the vinyl community. I need new video! Love your work btw
You should do a review on the Heyday Turnable from Target, I just got one and I’d like to hear your opinion about it.
I’ve owned both of them before settling upon the Fluance turntables. The cue lever on the 120 went belly up on me several weeks after purchasing the table but both tables are decent choices for any vinyl enthusiast.
I've owned an LP120 for about 5 years now and it's still running well. What happened to your cue lever?
They lose the dampening affect and end up just dropping the stylus hard onto the record unless you slowly lower it keeping a hold on the queuing lever. You can fix this by leaving the lever in the ‘up’ position when you not using it. It works smoothly and slowly lowers the tone arm. I read it on one of the forums and it’s so much easier than replacing it. Bigger problem is some of the older lp120s anti skate practically didn’t work. Again they do a kit to replace it but it’s fiddly, I found though that I could get mine to still work but it was turned up to the max. Still a great turntable and I only got rid of mine to upgrade to the Fluance rt85.
the biggest advantage of the 120 is the speed adjustment and visualization of the speed to adjust it with so its always perfect or close to it
The video was a cool comparison but I thought the whole point competition part was kinda silly because it weighted stuff like “the variety of colors” and “The Preamp” as the exact same value
If you cant decide between the two get the audio technica lp3. It is the best of both worlds. With the lp3 you get a counterweight and an upgradable cartridge, you also get the ability to use moving coil cartridges. it is an automatic belt driven turntable, but it also comes with a cue lever if you want to cue the record yourself.
Can you do more versus battles of turntables in the future?
Im currently working on fixing up my parents old Yamaha p-200 turntable from the 80s. Just needs a new cartridge and a belt and it will be all set. Thinking of getting an Ortifon 2m red headshell combo.
Thanks again for the content
I've been torn on which to upgrade to from my Jensen. Eyeing other Audio-Technicas as well. But ultimately I have a feeling I'll just want the LP120 at some point no matter what so might as well just save. My real problem is choosing speakers.
I ended up buying the LP120x USB and love it!!! As well as the Klipsch R-15PM Powered Monitor speakers ! Do you recommend an receiver and sub? The amazon links are all out of stock!
I've got the older LP-120 USB that I've upgraded with a cork mat and an Ortofon 2M Red. What changes, if any, did Audio Technica make with this new LP-120X model?
Great video I would also recommend both tables. I am still a technics person i own an Sl-1100a from 1971 and a 1210m3d(european import still works in Usa),but if i did not have them this is where i woulda started.Also forgot i do have an automatic table a technics Sl-qd33 if i wanna listen at night i use this table so if i fall asleep it will auto shut off
Messed up a while back and got a Victrola 6-in-1. After realizing the terrible mistake I made I finally got the LP60X about a few weeks ago. Let's see how well it serves me in years to come. Great video!
Glad you made the upgrade! You’re going to love that LP60X! Enjoy all the great records on it! 🎵
It isn’t a terrible unit as many people say. The tracking force is perfectly fine for your records as records are designed to handle up to 6 grams of tracking force.
@@TheGreenDoggoOfWisdom That is true, but the build and sound quality is just not great
@@TheGreenDoggoOfWisdom you really are everywhere.....
@@KingRiverVlogs Indeed I am

Can you do a video about manual and automatic operation? Also can you suggest a wide array of automatic record players?
Thanks for the comparison! I'd like to add the 120 has Pitch adjust, and it's "quartz timed." Meaning if one is 'pitch-error' adverse, then consider the 120. My 2015 120 is still going strong, and I don't have noticeable 'rumble' from the direct drive motor.
My LP120 arrived today and i loovvvee iiitt!! . I also bought it based on your Videos...so thank you i am very happy
I have listen to vinyl for a year and absolutely in love with the sound.
Are there anyway i can listen to it while i taking a walk at the park in the morning ?
(Sorry for my bad English)
Would it now be a more level playing ground by comparing the LP120X vs LP3?
I've had an LP6 the last couple of years. Can't recommend it enough. It's great beginners and casual listeners!
I was surprised that this comparison was as close as it was. Having watched other videos on your channel, I didn’t expect the 60x to fare as well as it did. Your scoring presents them as almost equal (save price).
I split the difference between the two and bought an LP3...and it’s pretty wonderful, too.
I bought a LP60X-BT (Bluetooth) last year & I love it, very happy with that purchase.
Can i ask what speakers are you using with it? I've just bought the 60 BT version have yet to buy BT speakers, Thanks !
I use my soundbar as the speakers. I only use the Bluetooth for headphones to be honest.
How often should I change the needle/stylus?
Question? After a period of time our left speaker goes out: nothing can be heard from it when playing records. When receiver goes to FM it sounds fine. Have any ideas what the cause is and or how to fix permanently? Otherwise, we unhook everything and hook it up again, which seems to work.
Started with the LP60, for some reason it had a hard time playing my Chic records. As soon as I switched to the LP120x, the records played through perfectly.
I'd love to hear your oppinions or even reviews on the ATH-LP30 and ATH-LP40. There're so many mixed opinions on them on the internet and it seems that LP-60 and 120 are the only models by AT you mention, like they are the only ones and others don't exist😅 Not that much of a critique, just a heads-up.
Cool video! You're really thorough and fair in your ratings. Have you seen the South Korean levitating (LEVI) turntable? I don't believe it's an actual thing (yet), but I found it so intriguing! (:
I just got the lp60xbt and I love it, its my first turntable and its great
Are the pre amps different from each other or are they about the same
The LP120X-USB’s direct-drive motor has a cogging issue that can be heard in quiet music and between tracks. Trust me, it’s annoying. I solved it by adding an A-T Disk Stabilizer weight (AT618a), but the LP120X-USB has since been retired in favor of a Fluance RT85 belt-driven table. For the money, I like the Fluance far better.
DISCLAIMER: I don’t represent any company, and my opinions are based on my own experiences.
I would have thought AT resolved the cogging issues with the new X and 140XP
@@manFromPeterborough: One hopes so, but I'm not going to get one to test and compare. I have a terrific Fluance RT85 that is my go-to turntable.
I've only own the lp60 and I've had for a few years works great. The lp120 looks nice.
Do they have any some features like Upgradable cartridge, and adjustable counter weight, etc?
Do you have to align the cartridge for the lp120
i have the lp60x and the pain with that is after having it for a couple of years, i had to adjust the belt tightness because it seemed my records were turning slower and that was a tedious process...
I have a rose gold colored LP60X. Love it!
i have a question, so i have a heyday record player that i got from target, it’s a belt driven turntable that connects via bluetooth speakers, it uses an audio technica cartridge so the audio sounds amazing. only thing is i find i have to be *extremely* careful with closing the dust cover because almost any bump will make the record skip. so the question is how does the lp120 compare? i was thinking of getting the lp120xbt because i love the bluetooth option. would i have to be careful with the dust cover on it as well? also does the turntable pick up sound from opening/closing the dust cover as well? thanks for any feedback!
Cool comparison personally though I’m pretty happy with my gloss white pro-ject debut carbon evo and klipsch r-15 pm speakers😎.
Can’t go wrong with that combo! 😎👍
I recently bought 2 lp120xusb turntables to scratch with. Very nice turntables and worth every cent
Is very much like to see a video where you go over your current complete vinyl setup(turntable, speakers, receiver, etc)
I think he already did that.
@@Trance88 the only one I could find was made 5 years ago
If I can get the same price for both Audio Technica LP60X-BT and Sony PS-LX310BT, which one would you go for?
I have a LP120X USB, I give it another point because it has a pitch adjustment
Absolutely, especially since the LP60X spins too fast.
@@willgregg1076 Is this a common problem? Recently I noticed my LP60X was spinning faster than normal and even though you can barely notice that the pitch is higher, it still bothers me a lot and I wonder if this is something that didn't only happen to me.
@@oldbrownshoe isn’t there a manual adjust for the speed on the bottom of the turntable? You should be able to correct it yourself if you’re having that issue.
I thought I noticed that when I listened to the it's to the LP60x verses the Fluance RT 81 in a review but to answer another commenter yes there is a speed adjustment under the turntable but without a strobe you'll probably need a Mat Stroboscope.
I have both. I use one for listening in my den (LP60) and the other (120) in my office so I can listen to 78 RPM records. Love them both.
How does the sound differ? That's the most important factor for me
Good review although you probably should have reviewed the usb version of the 60 to make it fair - comparing these 2 and giving the point the 120 is like comparing a truck to a VW Beetle and giving the truck a point for hauling since the Beetle has no box but you knew that going in. Ultimately it sounds like both a pretty solid machines(just ordered a 60X myself) and it all comes down to what is important to you - the usb and ability to play 78 would be nice but are not important enough to justify spending more for me right now. Plus it gives me an excuse to buy another one down the road :)
