Product Description
The AT-LP70XBT
The AT-LP70XBT fully automatic wireless belt-drive turntable is designed for budding vinylphiles – those who love sitting back with the album art in hand to enjoy warm, analog music as the artist intended. Added Bluetooth® wireless technology gives you the option to listen to your vinyl over Bluetooth-enabled speakers, headphones, or other devices, including those that support the high-quality Qualcomm® aptXTM Adaptive audio codec.
Arguably, the most important component for generating high-fidelity audio from vinyl is a quality phono cartridge. Audio-Technica has been a leader in phono cartridge design for more than 60 years, and we’ve drawn on that expertise to create a versatile, high-performance cartridge for this turntable – performance that other turntables in this class simply can’t match. Integrated into the J- shaped tonearm, the AT-VM95C cartridge with 0.6 conical stylus offers excellent channel separation and low distortion for outstanding tonal quality. And the stylus can also be easily upgraded with any of the other styli (elliptical, microlinear, or Shibata) in our VM95 Series, offering customization that is normally only possible on a turntable with a detachable headshell and cartridge.
The easy-to-use AT-LP70XBT plays both 33-1/3 and 45 RPM records and, in addition to its Bluetooth wireless technology, has a built-in switchable phono preamp that allows the turntable to also be connected directly to a home stereo, powered speakers, computer or other component, whether that component has a dedicated phono input or not. The three-piece, anti-resonance chassis provides a solid foundation that dampens unwanted noise for improved sound quality. Noise is further reduced by the inclusion of an AC adapter that moves the AC/DC conversion outside of the chassis to limit its impact on the signal chain.
The turntable comes with a detachable RCA output cable (dual RCA male to dual RCA male with ground), 45 RPM adapter, and removable hinged dust cover, and is available in three color schemes: Black/Silver, Black/Bronze, and White/Silver.

The AT-SP3X
The AT-SP3X speaker has a sound quality design optimized for Audio-Technica’s analog products, such as phono cartridges and turntables. The signal picked up by the cartridge is faithfully reproduced as direct output sound. It also supports Bluetooth® connectivity. This allows you to enjoy the sound of vinyl wirelessly without worrying about having to wire the turntable and speakers together. The device is also multipoint compatible, so you can use your smartphone after listening to music on a turntable without having to re-pair. Since its founding in 1962, Audio-Technica has dedicated itself to the world of sound. This passion extends to all aspects of the audio signal path, from entry to exit.
Specially tuned to deliver rich, full-range audio
3′′ (76 mm) woofer and 1.1′′ (27 mm) tweeter are combined in an acoustically designed enclosure, and the sound quality is then specially tuned by using the built-in DSP. This delivers a flat, clear, and well-balanced sound. It can faithfully reproduce the sound of vinyl, especially when used with an Audio-Technica turntable. Since it can be connected via Bluetooth, you can also enjoy superior sound from your smartphone or tablet.
Impressive sound from compact bookshelf speakers
Despite its compact size of just 125 mm (4.9′′) wide × 200 mm (7.9′′) high × 136 mm (5.4′′) deep, it delivers a maximum output power of 30 W.
Tweeter grille helps produce well-balanced sound
A tweeter grille empowers the sound in the frequency band with strong directionality. The acoustic effect is enhanced to provide well-balanced sound for the entire room.
Bass reflex ducts for high-impact bass
A bass reflex duct on the rear side of the speaker is designed with the optimum dimensions for the enclosure. This duct produces high-impact bass regardless from any playback source, such as a turntable or smartphone.
Robust MDF material used for the enclosure
To suppress unwanted vibrations from the speakers themselves, the enclosure material is made of robust medium density fiberboard (MDF) material.
Simplified powered speaker setup does not require an external receiver/amplifier
No need to purchase additional devices or troublesome wiring.
Enjoy vinyl with the flexibility of wireless
This system allows you to enjoy the sound of vinyl from a Bluetooth-enabled turntable by simply installing speakers, without worrying about wiring. Bluetooth connectivity also allows for impressive sound from other audio sources such as computers, tablets, smartphones, and TVs.
Multipoint support for two simultaneous connections
Connect to both your smartphone and turntable at home at the same time, so you’ll never need to worry about switching devices again. You can use your smartphone after listening to music on the turntable without having to re-pair.
Wired connection compatible, play your vinyl just by plugging in
Enjoy the sound of vinyl at ease with both wired and wireless connectivity. Simply connect the audio (RCA) cable to your turntable and you’re good to go*.
*Audio (RCA) cables are not included with this product. A turntable or device with a phono equalizer output is required.
Intuitive operation with LED display that shows connectivity at a glance
After turning on the power button and making wireless/analog connections, you can enjoy intuitive operation with a simple volume knob. Speaker connection status can be determined at a glance through LED indications; power off: red, AUX IN: green (RCA), Bluetooth: blue, etc.
Minimalistic design that suits any room
The simple appearance fits anywhere in any room. The minimalistic design places the power button, volume control, and LEDs on the side.
