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\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, uncolored 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\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\u003cp\u003eThe AT-LPA2 comes with a pre-mounted AT-OC9XEN moving 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\u003cp\u003eThe cartridge comes mounted to an exclusive machined-aluminum headshell with azimuth adjustment, that attaches to the straight, carbon-fiber tonearm. Engineered specifically for this turntable, the new 8.8-inch tonearm also offers VTA adjustment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe lightweight, anti-resonant tonearm tracks smoothly and precisely, utilizing 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\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 analog audio.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e*Please Note: AT-OC9XEN’s stylus assembly is not field-replaceable, but Audio-Technica offers a fee-based Moving Coil Exchange Program to properly service your moving coil cartridge. The cartridge’s low (0.35 mV) output voltage also requires the use of a step-up transformer or moving coil phono preamp to boost the signal.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAT-0C9XEN\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe AT-0C9XEN moving coil cartridge* features a nude elliptical stylus (0.3 x 0.7 mil) and high-purity PCOCC coils. Designed to capture every nuance of your records with stunning clarity, tis cartridge blends engineering innovations with carefully selected materials to provide outstanding channel separation and detailed audio reproduction.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e*Please note: The cartridge’s low (0.35 mV) output voltage requires the use of a step-up transformer or moving coil phono preamp to boost the signal.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eMade of Acrylic\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe high-density acrylic of the chassis and platter dampens vibrations for supremely quiet playback, allowing the brilliance and detail of your vinyl records to shine through.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eExternal Power Supply and Control Unit\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eTo minimize electrical interference and ensure optimal performance, the AT-LPA2 features a separate power and control unit. This design isolates the sensitive audio components from power supply noise, resulting in a cleaner, more accurate sound.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eNew Tonearm for Excellent Tracking\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe AT-LPA2’s newly designed tonearm is engineered for precision and ease of use.
