Greater than one weekReally pleased with my purchase of the RT82 turntable. First it is beautiful (walnut), then simple to setup and use. Had one issue setting it up. It would not spin the record with the black motor cap on. Called and talked to Julie. Sweet and helpful. She instructed me to remove the motor cap and try it. Works perfectly! So I am enjoying playing my old vinyl records. Wow they sound good. Using an Ifi Zen preamp. Love the Fluance turntable and the Ifi Zen. Fluance people are really nice and helpful. They are busy so you have to be patient when you call. Sign of their success.

> 3 dayVery easy to set up nice looking and sounds very good through my 43 year old Pioneer receiver. on the nit picky side a place for the 45 adapter would have been nice as I have misplaced it already.

> 3 dayCopy of review for the 81 comparing both tables: I got this one for my bedroom and the 82 for my living room which is much bigger. I mainly got this one for the walnut color which was sold out in the 82 and I figured Id compare them this way. Slightly different rigs. This one has a Sony amp with old Pioneer 3 way speakers vs an onkyo with polk towers downstairs. Both rigs are excellent but slight advantage downstairs and Id say the om10 is a slightly better cart vs the at95 but all in all these turntables are amazing. I played the first 2 sides of deloused in the comatorium on both tables. Sounds are Bouncing around the room. Om10 slightly prettier at95 slightly livelier. Both of these tables are amazing. One of my favorite albums really coming to life right out of the box. Ive heard the at95 needs burn in time too so this really is a great cart. Both are beautiful tables and solid af. The walnut is definitely my favorite but the black is very classic and looks great. Im switching from project rpm and technics which were also nice tables but I honestly think these are the best sounding tables Ive ever had. Also upgraded both to acrylic mats. You will not be disappointed. Id say go with the om10 but really both sound amazing

> 3 dayI have never written a review before but I needed to say this. My brother bought me this record player for my birthday and after maybe 5 uses over 6 weeks the stylus broke. I went on the Fluance website asking for a replacement stylus as the website says there is a two year warranty for their products, but after several emails back and forth they came to the conclusion that I would not get a replacement stylus as While the turntable does come with a two year manufacturers warranty, this does not include arts such as stylus and belts which are subject to wear. This is one of the most asinine policies I have ever heard. When my brother bought this product it was not just the record player it was whole product which included a stylus. If you value an honest and fair company I would avoid Fluance.

> 3 dayThis was an upgrade purchase from an Audio Technica LP60. This sounds so much better and it feels so much better. Its sturdy and and made of quality components. I had to buy an additional Pre amp to go with it since my receiver doesnt have a phonostage. I chose this over the Uturn and Pro-ject tables because it has autostop, I wouldnt hesitate to buy this again.

> 3 dayYou need a preamp but you probably know that. Im excited that I can upgrade this in the future when I outgrow my current setup. Putting this together was easy. Just make sure to balance the tone arm on the surface you intend to place it. Overall the quality is great and sound quality is a million times better than my Target turntable.

> 3 dayThis is a high quality turntable and a big upgrade from my previous setup. Be warned you need to ground the unit to your amplifier using the included ground wire or you will get a ground hum.
