The turntable has a built-in preamp. You want to buy powered speakers. They sell tons of them now. The best I have heard were KRK powered speakers. To get a good idea of what’s available, check out the needledoctor or crutchfield websites. **Q: So, since this turntable has a built in preamp, does this mean I can use passive speakers? Or do I need powered speakers?** A: No. You'll need powered speakers or you'll need to plug it into an amp to use passive speakers. "Preamp" = pre (before) amplifier. Preamps and phono amps take the very low signal from the stylus and amplify it to a level that an amplifier can use. AND (the reason record players need phono-specific preamps instead of a standard preamp) the preamp/phonoamp also decodes the RIAA format that all albums since the 1950s use, which is proprietary and needs a specific type of decoding to play the music. **Q: I have always owned belt drive turntables. I have read that direct drive can be noisy. How is this one as far as rumble?** A: Rumble is not referred to on the manufacturers website. The signal to noise ratio is stated as greater than 50dB. That means the rating could actually be only 51dB but the exact number is not stated. Here are a few specs copied and pasted from the website. Motor - DC servo motor Starting Torque - >1.0 kgf.cm Wow and Flutter - <0.2% (WTD) @ 3 kHz (JIS) Signal-to-Noise Ratio - >50 dB Output Level - Pre-amp β€œPHONO”: 4 mV nominal at 1 kHz, 5 cm/sec Pre-amp β€œLINE”: 240 mV nominal at 1 kHz, 5 cm/sec **Q: Will this play an old 78 slate lp?** A: Yes, but you may want to buy a stylus (needle) or cartridge made specifically for your old monaural (mono) 78s. The stylus and cartridge that come with this unit are for modern stereo recordings on vinyl. The stylus itself might be damaged by use on old 78s. Changing styli and cartridge is a fairly simple process on this turntable, and styli and cartridges are easily available at many stores, as well as online. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by E***S on March 9, 2026* ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by L***U on May 15, 2019* ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by C***A on July 26, 2025* ## Frequently Bought Together - Audio-Technica AT-LP120XUSB-BK Direct-Drive Turntable (Analog & USB), Fully Manual, Hi-Fi, 3 Speed, Convert Vinyl to Digital, Anti-Skate and Variable Pitch Control Black - Edifier R1280T Powered Bookshelf Speakers - 2.0 Active Near Field Studio Monitor Speaker - Wooden Enclosure - 42 Watts RMS Power - Big Fudge Vinyl Record Cleaning Kit - 4-in-1 Record Cleaner Solution - Includes Ultra-Soft Velvet Record Brush, Cleaning Liquid, Stylus Brush and Storage Pouch --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sk/products/115534423-audio-technica-at-lp120xusb-bk-direct-drive-turntable-analog-usb](https://www.desertcart.sk/products/115534423-audio-technica-at-lp120xusb-bk-direct-drive-turntable-analog-usb) --- *Product available on Desertcart Slovakia* *Store origin: SK* *Last updated: 2026-05-06*
