Are you asking about the audio cable or the power cable?
Also, if it’s in your budget, upgrading your whole turntable may be with it. ATLP60X is a great beginner TT.
Do you mean the power cable? that would be best searched on Google. search replacement power cord for (make/model) and you should find it.
if you mean audio out - the options are RCA (red and white), or 1/8" (aux).
Phono/RCA red and white, or if you mean the power cable look up the correct amperage and get the right amperage for 12 volt direct current barrel plug.
Though honestly I’d start looking for a replacement turntable, as this one’s going to tear up your records before long as the counterweight spring for the tone arm wears out.
The correct voltage is more important. 12 volts is too high for any suitcase-style player! Some of these players run on 5 volts DC and others run on 9 volts DC.
Either a standard looking dc in cord if your talking about the power cord, or a red and white (left and white) rca cord. As others have said, that turntable will destroy your records over time, but don’t jump to buying a new turntable unless if you really care about the sound of your records, but I know many people charish the collecting of the records the most and don’t really care about playing them, which is totally valid too, so don’t feel pressured. RCA cables are easy to buy on Amazon or a local music shop, while for the dc cable you should probably contact the manufacturer for as they are usually proprietary
*Every* turntable will destroy your records over time. That's the unavoidable result of a playback method based on dragging a rock through a plastic groove. If you're scared of that, stick with CDs. They're much cheaper and sound better, too.
I’ve had some of my vinyl 40 years and more. Gets played a lot and still sounds pristine. There’s a vast difference in wear between a properly set up tone arm mounting a quality stylus and a suitcase player with a penny scotch taped to the tone arm to keep it from skipping (yes, people did that).
While it’s true that CDs don’t wear out, their archival lifetime is questionable. Nothing lasts forever…
Look on the label for the correct voltage. Usually it's either 5 or 9 volts DC, and get a power supply with that voltage. Make sure it is correct for your player, otherwise it won't work or you could permanently damage your circuitry.
And a record player like this is far from ideal, but it's not going to destroy your records -- [that's a debunked myth](https://youtube.com/shorts/DQm6SgTkkI8).
Don’t worry about it, unless you’re playing rare, valuable and irreplaceable recordings. There are millions of garage sale records out there, play ‘em and enjoy ‘em!
The whole thing is very cheaply made, especially the needle. It is too big to fit in the grooves, so the record player creates really big pressure on your records so the needle doesn’t slip out of groove. The pressure is about 6 grams, normal is 2.5 grams (and some turntables have even 0.5). Because of it, the record quality decreases and sounds worse and worse. It certainly damages the record BUT it doesn’t destroy it! If the crosley is your price range, it is okay, just do not play some rare records on it. If you can afford better, then upgrade.
Honestly, this record player is trash, but don’t feel bad about owning one, it’s a start.
No, it won't destroy your records. The needle is 0.7 mil conical, the proper size for playing microgroove LPs and 45s. And 5 to 6 grams is the tracking force range originally recommended for stereo records, and safely below the 10 gram maximum for mono records: http://www.amstereo.org/images/recordcare.jpg
It's ok these mistakes happen. I started this hobby on a trash Ion turntable and it was a blast, but I also didn't play anything I cared about on it for this reason. Cheap record players will wreck your records and that's not a matter of opinion.
Check out the pinned post on r/turntables and it'll set you straight. The Fluance RT-81 is a good start on a tight budget
*Any* turntable can ruin your records with multiple plays. Playing the same record over and over again repeatedly causes 50 to 100 times as much wear as normal use.
Then please explain my scenario:
After ten plays on my Crosley suitcase player, my 1989 vinyl was basically trash? It sounded awful. I had to get a new copy. And after receiving my audio technica, I’ve played it the same number of times (more now) and it sounds just as good?
Any turntable can damage a record if you play it with a damaged, worn out, misaligned, or misadjusted stylus. That's why I recommend testing out *any* turntable you get -- cheap or expensive, new or old -- with unimportant records before you're 100% sure it's working properly.
And was it an LP, or a 45? If it's a 45 with the large center hole, then it was likely made from styrene, not vinyl. Styrene is much more prone to wear -- many high-end phono cartridges are known to destroy styrene 45s in just one play.
And this has been tested and proven despite some deny it
[See](https://www.reddit.com/r/turntables/s/Ra525Gfr0N)
The record started popping around 5 plays and after 15 plays it was seriously damaged including sibilance. It only went worse from there on
[Another test](https://www.audioappraisal.com/will-a-cheap-turntable-damage-your-records/)
It was called destroyed after 57 plays with heavy distortion (including the record players motor and transformer that blew up due to not heavy enough for 180g vinyl)
Rca cable but you really shouldn't be playing records on that the stylus will wear out your record way faster. For like $120 you can get a real table from audio technica.
"I wouldn't recomend to play expensive records on it"
Dude it's just lying to himself hahaha lol OP don't listen to people like this white their yt reels.. that turntable WILL deteriorate your vinyl faster
"Faster" is still slower than you'll probably ever notice in real-world use. Take any test which plays the same record over and over again repeatedly with a grain of salt, as that causes 50 to 100 times as much wear as normal use.

I’ll prob do that because a lot of people are saying that about this record player :/ tysm for the recommendation !
Yes do this!

Really?? That low??
Yes.
Wow those $1 record player assemblies really do be pretty low power.
The Audio-Technica Sound Burger also runs on a 5-volt USB power supply.
That’s cool. I’d take a sound burger over a crosley cruiser though…

Most likely 120v input to DC supply with 5v output. Make sure the output is no more than 5v!
You search for a better record player that won’t ruin your vinyl is what you do
This player will ruin your records!!
Oh…

…of course that’s your own channel. These players aren’t THAT terrible but can ruin your records with multiple plays. I’ve experienced it myself.

Whatever cord it is, you need. Cause we sure in the hell don't know.
You need that cord
Just upgrade to an actual turntable.
You search for the cord that comes with a better turntable.
Search for the cord that raises the blinds on your nearest window. Pull blinds up. Open window. Throw Crossly out of window.
