Awesome Record Player
Crutchfield customer from Playa Del Rey, CA on 2/2/2021
I just got back into vinyl and I must say for the money, this turntable does not disappoint! It makes old records sound wonderful. I bought a record cleaning kit with a soft brush for the needle to ensure the records and needle are always clean for the sharpest sound quality. I've hooked it up to my Pioneer SX 850 Stereo Tuner/amp pushing 2 ADS 2-way speakers and it all sounds very nice working together . I opted for the Silver finish 120 because I think it looks good against the old tuner. Setup was simple enough with using the supplied instructions, but I recommend maybe checking out a YouTube video to double check one's work or watch as you put it together.
Pros: -Sounds Great, - Great price for the quality - Great Crutchfield service
Cons: I need more records

Unbelievable turntable for the money!
Jason from Uvalde, TX on 1/28/2021
Awesome turntable! I can't imagine anything close to this quality that could touch this price. I paired it with the denon pma-600ne (used the phono stage in the Denon instead of the built in one) and a pair a Klipsch Heresy's. The sound produced by this trio is out of this world. The base produced is better than through Spotify streaming. Can't recommend this turntable enough.
Pros: Easy setup, runs smoothly, self explanatory operation, looks that will start conversations., built in phono stage or switchable to use an external, easily upgradable.
Cons: none

Audio-Technica LP-120XUSB
Crutchfield customer from Bend, OR on 12/21/2020
First off, I'm no audiophile. I am getting back into listening to vinyl records, reliving my youth and, remembering the great times I had as a teen listening to the hundreds of records we had. Embarrassingly so, I have this turntable hooked up to my powered computer speakers as I am waiting on my receiver and speakers to arrive. Found a few used vinyl discs at the local music store that are in "ok" condition. It sounds awesome already! I can't wait for my other equipment to really hear the sound. Very solid unit. Set up was easy. It was a scratch/dent model and great price. Can't find the scratch or dent. Read the reviews that pointed to this model being a solid unit with the features for the price. Crutch was fast with delivery and communication. Great experience so far!
Pros: Features for the price point Solid build Quality components for price point
Cons: None so far

Audio-Technica LP-120XUSB
Crutchfield customer from Dayton, MN on 11/20/2020
So far so good! Setting up was easy except for the counterweight on the tonearm (Audio Technica's instructions aren't perfect). Once that was propertly adjust everything sounded great! The turntable is large and heavy. The lid is nice quality. It has neat features like the pop-in light that can illuminate the stylus/cartridge. For a manual drive turntable I think its best feature is the the tonearm lifter, which allows you to both lift and gently drop the tonearm where you want. I would buy one of these again!
Pros: Good quality easy to use sounds good great features
Cons: counterweight setup is a bit clunky

Very good turntable
Crutchfield customer from Closter, NJ on 10/29/2020
I am very impressed with this turntable. It was very easy to assemble, and I was happy at the ease of the P-mount and the easy adjustment of the tone arm balance, weight, and the anti-skating control. The stylus looks and sounds very good. Positioning the tonearm seems totally easy and idiot-proof. Adjusting the positioning of the legs was easy with a level. The audio quality sounds very good. So good, that I would like to hear it with better speakers. I think that the direct-drive (magnetic?) setup performs well, and the speed selection and adjustment add well to the package. The price seems very fair.

Crutchfield customer from Antioch, CA on 10/2/2020
I purchased this turntable after my Kenwood KD55F died. Not any stereo shops around any more, so I looked online at Crutchfield. Not being able to walk into a stereo shop and talk to knowledgeable sales people, I scheduled a phone call with a sales rep. Seth called me at the scheduled time. We talked for awhile and I decided on the LP-120XUSB. It was out of stock, but Seth let me know they had one in "scratch & dent". I have found no flaws on the turntable- just the paper with all the safety precautions [who reads those anyway ?] This turntable performs way better than my old one. I noticed the inner tracks sound just as good as the outer track.

In love with vinyl again!!!!
Crutchfield customer from Siloam Springs, AR on 8/26/2020
After 40 years of not listening to vinyl I thought I would get back into LP'S again. I was a die-hard CD for the last 30 years. After much research I decided to go with the Audio Technica LP 120xusb from Crutchfield. At this price I figured I wasn't out too much money if I wasn't happy. Both my wife and I are blown away by the difference between vinyl and CD. This Turntable is awesome at this price point and Crutchfield has lived up to their reputation for customer service. The first unit they sent me had a bad pre-amp, within a couple days I had the replacement. I'm in awe how good vinyl sounds. So if you are thinking about going vinyl, again or for the first time give this Turntable a try. I'm playing this through a Mirantz SR-6014 receiver going to a pair of Emotiva XPA HC-1. 300 Watt mono blocks into Klipsch RF-7s that has never sounded better.
Pros: Awesome sound at this price point
Cons: No auto return so you have to stop what your doing to tend to record. Not so bad when you're kicked back listening.

Crutchfield customer from New Orleans, LA on 7/14/2020
This is a good looking direct drive turntable that delivers strong, clear sound even though I find the stylus to be low quality. That's a definite consideration considering quality stylus cartridges begin at $250 which is what this unit cost with the Audio-Technica cartridge that sells for $35. It took a bit of adjusting and manipulation to get it to play clearly, but once that was accomplished it works fine so far.
Pros: Attractive, clear sounding turntable
Cons: Medium quality stylus

I like it and would recommend
Crutchfield customer from Hamlin, WV on 7/12/2020
I bought this to replace my 30 + year old Technic Turntable (motor gave out). This one came the closest to the Technic, although It was rather expensive. The two things I Do Not like about this turntable, it does not automatically turn off at the end. I usually listen to music while cleaning, with this turntable I have to stop what I'm doing and attend to it. The Technic I had shut off automatically. The other is, this one came with a felt mat that the record sits on, I just put the rubber mat from my Technic on it. Other than those two items at this time, I like it. Time will tell, we'll see if this turntable will last 30 years.

The Audio Technica LP-120XUSB came highly recommended to me. It sounds great. I haven't listened to my vinyl in years and had gravitated to the sound of CD's. It turns out I just had a rotten old turntable! This was simple to connect and I am looking forward to digitizing my old records which looks fairly straightforward with the Audacity app.
Pros: Great sound
Cons: It might have been nice if the tone arm were automatic

The only thing I wish it. Had...
Crutchfield customer from San Francisco, CA on 6/1/2020
The only thing I wish it had was automatic return. Other than that it is everything I needed. I stumbled upon my wife's old record collection along , old stuff from the 60's and 70's, she also had records from her dad classical and some 78's. This was only player I found that played everything 45's, 33.3 and 78. Set up was super easy, plug and play really. Sounds great . Forgot all the skips and pops on old records. Overall for the price and excellent value.
Pros: Easy set up, true fidelity, plays 78's.
Cons: No automatic return.

Crutchfield customer from Warrensburg, NY on 4/18/2020
I'm sorry but you guys keep sending me an email wanted me to rate this turntable. I didn't know any other way to let you know I have not been able to use it for I have not received my albums that I ordered online. I'm supposed to get two of them Tuesday the 21st of April. I have four other albums I am waiting for from to other places. I have no idea when they'll be here. Coronavirus is infecting everything including shipping and handling!
Pros: Very very easy to set up and balance tonearm. I bought a tiny tonearm weight scale. I think I paid $11 for it. It seems to be luck of the draw on whether or not the cheap little scale you buy will work or not. I got lucky and mine worked. That being said I still have not been able to play a record yet because I have not received them in the mail yet. I love the look and the ease of this turntable.
Cons: I have none. I forgot something. The platter does have a slight dip as it turns. I'm going to call and see if this is normal.

This turntable was not the one I thought I wanted. However, it was highly reviewed and very reasonable in cost. I am very happy with this product. It was easy to setup, use and provides a very clean sound. I listen to CD more than vinyl at this point, but plan to expand that collection soon. Unit lived up to its press and I have had fun with it so far
Pros: easy setup clean sound easy to use selectable sourcing (phono or aux)

If you have albums you love buy a decent Turntable and enjoy them . I couldn't be happier ! Thanks !

Very Nice for the price point
Mark from Rochester, NY on 3/19/2020
I have owned turn tables basicly all of my life. It started along time ago with the close and play record player when I was very young. As every one knows vinyl went by the way side and now has come back with a vengence. So I purchased a new turntable. I didn't want to go into debt buying one, so I opted for this model. The people at Crutchfield were very helpfull in my decision thanks to Sonny. The unit was very easy to set up and the sound quality is excellent based on the price point. Great unit for the price many features, maybe in the future I will upgrade the stylus but for now I'm having fun with my old vinyl records that bring back fond memories of what rock and roll and the blues realy ment.

Crutchfield customer from Boardman, OH on 1/16/2020
A solid DJ turntable that has no noticeable rumble or flutter. It spins up quick and has some nice features for syncing tracks. Pretty solid cartridge but I might upgrade it for critical listening. All that being said, I might look at one of the full auto turntables for home use. Getting up to stop the turntable at the end of the album gets old.
Pros: direct drive, pitch control, USB output
Cons: full manual mode for home use

Easy set up and incredible sound. I paired this turntable wit a new SONOS Amp and am happy to be sending the sounds of my old record collection throughout my house. I am impressed with how easy it was to integrate this turntable into my whole house system.

A well loved gift
Crutchfield customer from Kings Mountain, NC on 1/7/2020
Nice unit. Paired it with a Yamaha Rx880 and my older Aperion Audio Intimus 5.1 It really sounds nice. I did believe that it was a fully automatic turntable. It is not. But the quality build, the simplicity in the manual play, and great sound, have me sold. I'd buy this unit again , and do recommend it. I bought this as a gift for my spouse. I get to enjoy their present as much or more than they do. One thing we found, remove the computer cord from the line out if you're going to use the speaker vs recording it to your computer. With both in only one side of speakers received signal. We removed the computer cable, and L and R speaker sound was restored . Maybe this is common, but I was unaware.
Pros: Great Sound, simplicity, quality, quiet drive (no drive noise in playback), great bang for the buck
Cons: Can not have line to computer in while playing. It's one or the other. Otherwise sound is split , L channel to one output, R to the other output. I'd prefer to leave the line in, and have that option of just plugging it into my laptop.

AT LP-120XUSB
Crutchfield customer from Andalusia, AL on 1/5/2020
I have been very pleased with my purchase of the AT LP-120XUSB. I am now able to enjoy the playback of my 40+ year old LPs, plus some of my parent's LPs which are well over 60 years old. My only issue is when I listen at a volume level of 80-90%, there is feedback resulting in a loud bass overload through my speakers. I also purchased IsoAcoustics OREA Bronze, but their improvement impact seems minimal. I feel their purchase was a wasted $200+.
Pros: Price and performance with USB capability.
Cons: Feedback at high volume levels.

Exceptional turntable!
Crutchfield customer from Fort Lauderdale, FL on 1/3/2020
Everything I expected! Classic design and functionality. Easy to hook up and install. Grew up back in the 80's with turntables and this product just brought my record collection from being silent and dormant for 34 years. Exceptional buy and must have gear if you have any record collection. Sound quality was very good right off the bat. Just listening to the "popcorn" sound took me back in time to my teen years. I will definitely be hunting for garage sales and flea markets on weekends in search for some old school jewels!
Pros: Well built. Solid construction. Cables have good length. Easy to put together.
Cons: None to report.

Great turntable, not only for the price, but for the sound!
Crutchfield customer from Arlington, TN on 1/2/2020
This turntable is better than what I had imagined and I was expecting great things. I bought this for my teenage son for Christmas. He has never had the experience of hearing an album on a turntable. After easy set-up, he wanted to hear something off of St. Peppers. The look on his face and his wide eyes when the needle dropped and the music played. He had never experienced such a dynamic range in music before. Being a boomer, I have listened to albums as long as I can remember, but unfortunately haven't used one in over a decade. Why? I will never go back to digital or streamed music unless necessary.
Pros: easy set-up easy to use unmatched sound direct drive
Cons: have not found any cons.

Excellent turntable! You can hookup with USB, integrated phono preamp or into your receiver/preamp phono stage. The direct drive platter is lightning fast, will play 78rpm records along with the regular 33 and 45s. It has a light for low light operation and has Multiple options for pitch control. Excellent sound and accurate playback.

Time For a "Favorite Album Party!"
Crutchfield customer from Cincinnati, OH on 12/28/2019
This turntable was delivered as presented! Everything that was needed was in the box. Quick, easy setup & it plays albums flawlessly. Could I have spent more? I really didn't need to...
Pros: Very straight forward setup Album illumination light is helpful in low light corner of the room. Comfort of knowing that if I have questions or issues, Crutchfield will be there to address them.
Cons: None noted, so far

Tough as a Battleship
Crutchfield customer from Driftwood, TX on 12/27/2019
This turntable is as tough as a battleship, and and as stable as a boulder, with great, warm sound. My only complaint is that I cannot add an after-market auto-stop to the tonearm (at least I haven't found one yet that will fit). So, simply because of that, I will probably upgrade down the line to a semi-automatic turntable, for more bucks. Crutchfield's service and shipping was first rate, as always.
Pros: First rate sound reproduction for the price. Stable, and bulletproof.
Cons: No after-market auto-stop adaptor will fit it.

Great Turntable for the Price
Brendan from Fairfield, CT on 12/17/2019
Very good turntable for the price! I am somewhat of a novice with turntables - still have a lot to learn - but so far I really like this one. The direct drive is great - it starts and stops very quickly. It was very easy to set up - 10 minutes and I was good to go. The only thing I don't like is there is no lever to lift and lower needle.
Pros: Price Easy Setup Direct Drive
Cons: No lever to raise and lower needle.

Crutchfield customer from Saint Paul, MN on 12/16/2019
Great affordable option for me. I need 78rpm. I think it'd be hard to find a better unit under $350 and probably impossible to find one that plays 78rpm. I'm not using any pre-amp or usb options so I can't comment on those. Sounds great and the tracking light is helpful. It's got a cool look, maybe too high tech looking for my old system, but it sounds great.

Great turntable
Crutchfield customer from Waco, TX on 12/11/2019
For the money I paid for this turntable it is has incredible sound. I didn't think I would like the fully manual part of it; but it hasn't bothered me so far. I bought some new records and they really do sound better than digital music. They are just harder to find.

Digitizing & Hypnotizing
Crutchfield customer from Butte, MT on 10/20/2019
I purchased this as a second player in my home. I grabbed it because it had a stop/start and the price was fair. Blown away. Out the box the motor is spinning perfectly. I swapped the cart out for a Ortofon Pro S and replaced the felt slipmat with a cork mat. This stepped it up in terms of how I need it. I am digitizing non stop and have been very surprised with the performance and ease of use. The steel wheel was a nice bonus. If you are starting out and want a direct drive with a phono preamp this is a quality machine for entry. It fits all the reasons of my use but the sound and quality were an extra bonus.
Pros: Quality parts. Clean look. Excellent plug and play with USB and phono preamp. Steady & quiet motor with excellent response.
Cons: Slip mat was basic and warped. Incl cart and styli are pretty basic but price justifies that.

Clear sounding solidly built turntable.
Crutchfield customer from Tifton, GA on 10/3/2019
I've been using older turntables that needed some work when I got them and was ready for something new. I read the reviews and took the plunge. First thing it's a solid feeling heavy turntable. Easy to set up the counterweight. Be careful with the packaging as some critical parts to the turntable are inside of the styrofoam. One of those parts being the LED light that shines on the surface of the record. It really helps you position the tone arm over a specific track. Sounds greats.
Pros: Well built sounds great.
Cons: It's not fully automatic but getting up to move the needle isn't so bad.

Found all our old LPs boxed up under the pool table when we sold it. So, we got back into music on vinyl, but my 40-year old BIC table was frozen up, and it would cost more to fix than it was worth. Did a lot of research, and this Audio-Technica LP-120XUSB fit the bill. It is great, and it is so cool to now be able to listen to all our old LPs again.

Plays great. Would perfer automatic direct drive.
Crutchfield customer from Fort Collins, CO on 8/14/2019
I've been using my Technics SL 1300 that I bought in 1975 which has finally stopped working. It's fully automatic. Trying to get used to tending my new fully manual LP-120XUBS. Does Audio Technica make a fully automatic table with a S toe arm and direct drive motor. If not, I'll stick with this one. It has the features I want and it looks and plays great, just have to get used to the manual part of it.
Pros: Overall great turntable
Cons: Not automatic, felt mat

Turntable set-up
Crutchfield customer from Baltimore, MD on 5/23/2019
Very nice turntable, easy to assemble but a little challenging in balancing the arm, but that's not to be taken as a negative for the unit, but rather the knowledge of finding out how to do it. A YouTube video helped a little. But the best about the sale from Crutchfield is their tech support, which is excellent. Very patient and knowledgeable technicians. I realize that it is not a high-end table, but it is more than sufficient for the casual user.
Pros: For the price an excellent turntable, fast delivery, and excellent tech service.
Cons: Maybe more thorough directions on how to balance the arm. To the novice there was not much there. For example, in balancing the arm the weight has two parts, but built as one piece. There is nothing that states that the front part of the weight must be turned separately from the actual weight. I turned the knob as an all in one piece and then it became stuck. I had to call and the technician explained that to me.

Very nice mid grade turntable!
Crutchfield customer from Knoxville, TN on 4/18/2019
I decided to get back into vinyl after a 12 year absence. Back in the 80's I had a great direct drive Technics turntable. Then I listened to all the audiophiles and decided to "upgrade" to a belt drive Dual in the early 90's. Sure it looked great, but honestly didn't sound any better to my ears. In fact I soon grew tired of it's inability to maintain speed, something that was easily adjustable on my Technics. When I decided to get back into vinyl, I knew I didn't want to spend $500+ and I knew that I didn't want a cheap plastic $100 turntable either. There are quite a few nice looking choices in the $2-300 range so that's where my research began and what ultimately lead me to this new turntable. I read too many reviews of speed issues with the belt drive models on every brand and decided I wanted to go with a direct drive with pitch adjustment like my old Technics. I upgraded the felt mat with a rubber one, but other than that I'm leaving it stock and after the easy initial setup, I'm glad to report that it sounds great! A couple things I want to note for people that isn't apparent in the photos or description. In the photos the unit look dark grey, it is in fact black. Also the plinth is metal, not plastic. This thing has some good weight to it. Feels pretty solid. Overall, I'm very pleased.
Pros: Direct drive Pitch Adjustment Light for needle placement Solid feel
Cons: Big (barely fit in my cabinet)
