Audio-Technica AT-LP120XBT-USB Direct-Drive Turntable Bundle with ATH-M50xBT2 Wireless Studio Headphones (Black)

The Complete Vinyl Setup: A Direct-Drive Deck and Wireless Studio Headphones in One Box

This bundle pairs the Audio-Technica AT-LP120XBT-USB direct-drive turntable with the ATH-M50xBT2 wireless studio headphones, and the combination is built for one specific buyer: the vinyl listener who wants to spin records and monitor them privately at studio quality, without wiring a single cable to the wall. The turntable plays, digitizes, and streams. The headphones deliver the acclaimed M50x sound wirelessly with 50 hours of battery. Together they cover late-night listening, digitizing a collection, and DJ-style practice, all from one purchase.

Why a Direct-Drive Deck Outperforms a Belt-Drive Starter Player

The AT-LP120XBT-USB is anchored by a DC servo direct-drive motor with quartz speed lock. Coupling the platter directly to the motor spindle means it reaches full speed almost instantly and holds 33-1/3 RPM dead-steady, where a belt-drive starter deck wanders as its rubber belt ages. Wow and flutter stays under 0.2%, and the anti-resonance die-cast aluminum platter with felt mat adds rotating mass that smooths speed further. Starting torque above 1.0 kgf.cm and an electronic brake give the platter the instant start-stop response a DJ needs to cue a record.

Digitize Your Records and Stream Them Wirelessly

The turntable's built-in USB output turns your collection into a digital library. Connect the included USB cable to a Mac or PC, open Audacity or any recording app, and capture each side at 16-bit/44.1 or 48 kHz. For wireless listening, Bluetooth 5.0 with Qualcomm aptX streams to any Bluetooth speaker, and a switchable phono/line preamp means the deck plugs into powered speakers, an aux input, or a hi-fi phono stage. The detachable dual-RCA cable with ground wire is included, so every wired option is covered too.

Pitch Control and a Tonearm Built for Real Handling

The high-accuracy quartz-controlled pitch lock holds exact speed, and the pitch slider gives a +/-10% range for beatmatching two records by ear. A stroboscopic platter with speed indicator confirms speed at a glance, and the balanced S-shaped tonearm offers hydraulically damped lift control, adjustable tracking force, adjustable dynamic anti-skate from 0 to 4 g, and a lockable rest. The AT-VM95E Dual Moving Magnet cartridge with its 0.3 x 0.7 mil elliptical stylus tracks the groove accurately and upgrades to any VM95 Series stylus down the road.

The ATH-M50xBT2 Brings Studio Monitoring to Your Listening Chair

The included ATH-M50xBT2 wireless headphones carry the same 45mm large-aperture drivers and tuned sound signature that made the wired M50x a studio standard. Closed-back design isolates you for private late-night listening, multipoint Bluetooth pairs two devices at once, and the AK4331 32-bit DAC with LDAC and aptX Adaptive support handles high-resolution wireless audio. Up to 50 hours of battery life means you can listen for weeks between charges, and a 10-minute quick charge gives three more hours when you are low. When you want zero latency, the detachable 3.5mm cable plugs straight into a headphone amp.

How the Turntable and Headphones Work as One System

The synergy is the point. Stream records straight from the turntable's Bluetooth 5.0 transmitter to the M50xBT2 and you have a completely wireless private listening rig, no receiver, no amp, no cables across the room. Or run the turntable into a system for the room and drop the headphones on for late-night sessions when the house is asleep. Both pieces are Audio-Technica, both speak the same aptX Bluetooth language, and both are built around the same goal: accurate sound that respects the record.

For the Vinyl Listener Who Wants to Spin, Save, and Monitor in Private

For the first-timer stepping up from a belt-drive player, this is a deck that will not be outgrown and headphones that reveal what the cartridge is actually pulling from the groove. For the upgrader, it is direct-drive stability, USB archiving, and studio monitoring in one move. For the comparison shopper, the numbers tell the story: under 0.2% wow and flutter, quartz speed lock, +/-10% pitch, 45mm studio drivers, and 50-hour wireless battery. Spin a record. Digitize it. Drop on the headphones. Everything you need is here.
