Practical differences
Highlighted cells show a lower reference price, support for more listed speeds, or the presence of a convenience feature. They are not an overall score.
The Audio-Technica AT-LP60X undercuts the Audio-Technica AT-LP60XUSB by £15 — £135 against £150.
Both are belt-drive, so that part of the experience should feel similar on either deck: a motor that's mechanically isolated from the platter by an elastic belt, which is the usual route to a quieter noise floor — the default choice across most of hi-fi.
The Audio-Technica AT-LP60XUSB has a USB output for ripping vinyl.
Bottom line: £15 separates these reference prices. That difference is factual; this specification comparison does not assign an overall winner.
