This combination delivers excellent channel separation, low distortion, and outstanding sound quality. In addition, there is the option to replace the original stylus with one of the five styli from the VM95 series; and the VTA (vertical tracking angle) adjustment of the tonearm, together with the sub-counterweight, also allows the use of a wide selection of other cartridges.\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003eThe AT-LP8X offers three playback speeds, 33-1\/3, 45, and 78 RPM. Its rubber-damped, low-resonance 25 mm thick die-cast aluminium platter with a 2.5 mm rubber mat is driven by a sensor-controlled motor that ensures consistent rotational speeds and high stability. This motor and the highly efficient internal switching power supply are housed in an MDF (Medium-Density Fibreboard) chassis, whose height-adjustable feet also provide excellent protection against unwanted vibrations and noise.\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003eThe turntable comes with a detachable RCA connection cable (2 x RCA plugs to 2 x RCA plugs plus ground), a 45 RPM adapter, and a detachable dust cover with hinge mounts.\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cb\u003eListening Pleasure with Convenience\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe tonearm lift of the AT-LP8X automatically raises the tonearm at the end of the record and the motor stops – rare features on a direct-drive turntable.
