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 Denon DP-29F undercuts the Audio-Technica AT-LP60XBT by £1 — £179 against £180.

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-LP60XBT has Bluetooth streaming.

The Audio-Technica AT-LP60XBT is fully automatic — press start and the arm cues itself and lifts at the end of the side — where the Denon DP-29F needs you to cue the arm by hand.

Bottom line: £1 separates these reference prices. That difference is factual; this specification comparison does not assign an overall winner.
