AT-LP8X

Audio-Technica expands its line of direct-drive turntables with the semi-automatic AT-LP8X, featuring a newly designed tonearm lift that automatically raises the tonearm at the end of a record side and stops the motor.

The turntable’s J-shaped aluminum tonearm, inspired by classic A-T models of the 1960s and ’70s, comes equipped with a newly designed AT-LT10 headshell and AT-VM95E BK (black) cartridge with 0.3 x 0.7 mil elliptical stylus, providing excellent channel separation and low distortion for outstanding tonal quality. For easy customization, the stylus can be replaced or interchanged with any of the five additional styli in the VM95 line, and the tonearm’s VTA (vertical tracking angle) adjustment and subcounterweight enable the use of a broad range of other cartridges.

The AT-LP8X plays 33-1/3, 45, and 78 RPM records. Its 25 mm rubber-damped, anti-resonance, die-cast aluminum platter comes with a 2.5 mm rubber mat and is driven by a sensor-monitored motor that ensures a continuously accurate platter rotation speed. The motor and its efficient internal switching power supply are housed within a box plinth constructed of 16 mm MDF (medium density fiberboard) and equipped with height-adjustable feet for excellent protection against unwanted noise and vibration.

The turntable comes with a detachable RCA output cable (dual RCA male to dual RCA male with ground), 45 RPM adapter, and removable hinged dust cover.

requirement: scan codes & down load proprietary app to set up & use all the functions of the unit
SPECS The printer weighs 39.19 pounds.  Overall it is 22.625 x 17.5 x 12.03125 inches.  The output tray extender sticks out 5.875 inches from the unit.  The usable power cord length is 59.5 inches. The unit can use legal [B00006GNXZ], letter [B0B57CKBCT], or ledger [B0017LR3M4] size paper. The control panel tilts up and is a color touch screen. The display is 2.125 x 1.625 inches.  The unit has two sided coping, scanning, and printing. There is a document feeder on the top.  The home screen has menu, copy, scan, trays, supplies, jobs, and help as the main functions.  Firmware updates can be set to automatic, notify, or disabled.  The printer does not come with a user manual.  OVERVIEW The unit comes wrapped in a plastic bag that has handles on each side. I was able to easily lift the printer up myself using the handles and took it to the desk.  The printer is missing some key features that do not make the printer cost effective. There is only one print tray. A fold out rear tray vertical tray is not even there.  Having to constantly change paper size is an extreme inconvenience. There is no USB port to be able to print from or scan documents to a USB hard drive or directly from a camera, which is a disadvantage.    In addition, to utilize all the features a code needs to be scanned and or the H P app needs to be used.  I did not like having to scan a code to set up and connect to wireless connection as well as using any of the scan features of email, network folder, computer, and share point, which makes the scan option useless. I had to download the HP app to set up the printer. When I was done I deleted the app. I do not want numerous apps on my devices.  I found not having a manual for the unit to be a disadvantage.  This is not a user friendly printer with all the code and app requirements.  Using the web address on my laptop and phone, just gave me a link to the play store to download the app again, which I did not want.  The size of the display screen is small. At times I had to touch the menu button more than one time to get it to continue to the next screen.   The unit functioned well printing and scanning. I was able to print from the computer via wireless connection without using the app. The copy function does not require the app or show a code to scan to be able to continue. The document feeder allows for quick copying and scanning, which is an advantage. The rollers did grab a one sheet copy job crooked and the copy was askew on the page which is a disadvantage.  On best, the copy did not come out any better than normal.  The copy images were a poor representation of the original. The copy images were more pix elated making them not as complete and crisp. In addition, the single color grey images were very pale and could barely be seen. I did not sign up for HP instant ink, compatibility. I also disabled firmware updates.

Reliable, Long-Lasting Ink for Crisp Prints!
Style: Ink
The Epson 812 XL ink works perfectly with my Epson WF-7840! The colors are vibrant, and the black is deep and sharp. Every print comes out crisp and professional looking. The XL size lasts a long time, which means fewer replacements and better value. Installation was quick and easy, and the printer recognized it immediately with no issues. I’ve been using it for documents, photos, and labels, and it performs consistently every time. A must have for anyone who wants high quality prints without frequent refills!
