USB Turntables?

$ better spent plus a TT. But that's me.

That AT does look a good AIO solution though.
In general AT makes good stuff.

My turntable is a B&O Beogram Rx2. New (rebuilt) cartridges for it run over $200.

You may need to get a phono preamp if you're going to use a modern USB capture device with a vintage (say 80's or earlier) turntable. They aren't expensive. Check the documentation for the digitizer first though.

you can't just stuff a Ortofon or Grado in a shell?

No. B&O was proprietary back then.

I’ve got a TX2 - good stylus but know your pain.

I bought the AR120 years ago and it's worked fine. Doesn't look like the 60 has a USB connection for digitizing.

And in the review later on it is mentioned that there was a version of the AT 60 that does include USB for connecting to computers. The AT 60X probably was a consolidation of models so they weren't selling two different ones with almost identical features.

Some AT60 do not have USB or Bluetooth.

the 120 is better, but closer to $400. If you want that heavy duty build and a better table, go for it.

Fluance makes nice tables, too

very nice turntables but I'm not seeing USB in the descriptions.
