Following the release of a modernized version of its “Sound Burger,” Audio-Technica is continuing to commemorate its 60th anniversary with a limited-edition AT-LP2022 turntable in a distinctive clear acrylic finish.
The transparent 30mm high-density body reduces resonance while revealing the belt-drive motor’s inner workings.
The turntable comes with a fully manual setup and includes a special Shibata stylus capable of picking up ultra-high frequencies, a 9′′ carbon-fiber tonearm, and a clear acrylic platter.
Other features include height-adjustable feet and a three-position rotary for speed control ranging from 33rpm to 45rpm. The set includes a detachable dust cover, a 45 RPM adapter, and RCA cables.
“It is an honor to provide a quality audio experience to millions of people throughout the world. What begins as a simple vibration – a subtle movement – results in an emotional connection, whether that be when listening deeply to an album or sharing your voice with the world,” writes Kazuo Matsushita, President of Audio-Technica Corporation.
The Audio-Technica AT-LP2022 vinyl record player will be available for pre-order online beginning today, November 7 and will be available for purchase on December 16. For $1,200 USD, the pieces are limited to 3,000 individually numbered units worldwide.
