Classic Series design
TT350 Classic draws on JBL heritage: warm walnut face, brushed aluminum front edge with TT350 TURNTABLE lettering, 33/45 knobs with indicator lights. A solid MDF frame with round isolation feet keeps the deck stable on your surface. No dust cover included (per product design).
Note: this is a manual deck – you cue and lift the stylus yourself. For fully automatic operation, see AT-LP70XBT.
Direct-drive and VM95E
The direct-drive motor sits on the platter spindle for stable 33/45 RPM. Factory AT-VM95E (elliptical stylus) delivers detailed sound with clear mids. Upgrade paths in our cartridge buying guide.
RCA PHONO output: you need an amp with MM phono input or an external phono preamp before active speakers or a line-input amp.
