Speed Accuracy And Stability

Rated 4.8 Out off 5.0*

The Audio-Technica AT-LP7 is designed for speed accuracy and stability. It features a newly developed direct drive motor with quartz locked pitch control that ensures consistent platter speeds of 33 1/3, 45, or 78 rpm without any fluctuation in rotational speed. The high torque design allows the platter to reach its designated revolutions per minute quickly while providing stable rotation during playback, which minimizes wow and flutter distortion levels below 0.25%. Additionally, an audio grade integrated circuit maintains accurate rotational speed even when scratching or heavy cueing is applied on the record’s surface ensuring superior fidelity throughout your listening experience.
