Frequently Asked Questions
Does the Audio-Technica AT-LPW40WN have a built-in phono preamp?
Yes, the AT-LPW40WN features a built-in selectable phono pre-amplifier. You can output a line-level signal directly to powered speakers, or bypass it using the "phono" switch if you prefer to use an external phono stage or amplifier.
Is the Audio-Technica AT-LPW40WN an automatic or manual turntable?
This turntable is fully manual. You must manually lift the tonearm, place it onto the record groove to start playback, and return it to the armrest when the record finishes.
Can I upgrade the stylus on the AT-LPW40WN?
Yes. The turntable comes with the AT-VM95E Dual Moving Magnet cartridge. Its design allows you to easily swap the stylus to any higher-tier model in the Audio-Technica VM95 line without needing to change or realign the entire cartridge body.
How does the AT-LPW40WN compare to the AT-LP120XUSB?
The AT-LPW40WN is a belt-drive turntable featuring a wood-veneer MDF plinth and a rigid carbon-fiber tonearm, built specifically to prioritize audiophile isolation. The AT-LP120XUSB is a direct-drive turntable modeled after DJ equipment, featuring pitch control and a strobe indicator.
What is the main benefit of a carbon-fiber tonearm?
Carbon fiber is incredibly rigid yet lightweight. This helps the tonearm accurately track the record grooves while minimizing unwanted resonance and vibration, resulting in much cleaner audio reproduction.
How do I change the platter speed on the AT-LPW40WN?
Speed changes are controlled electronically via a selector switch located on the top of the plinth, allowing you to instantly switch between 33-1/3 and 45 RPM without having to manually lift the platter and move the drive belt.
