Fluance RT85 Reference High Fidelity Vinyl Turntable Record Player with Ortofon 2M Blue Cartridge, Acrylic Platter, Speed Control Motor High Mass MDF Wood Plinth Vibration Isolation Feet - Piano Black

I am not an audiophile, just a guy who likes to listen to records. I bought the white Fluance RT85 because of the positive reviews and because it looked cool with its acrylic platter, etc. I have owned many different turntables and record players over the years, but this one is the most expensive.

The sound quality is excellent! Take the time needed to property adjust the arm!

I bought this turntable to replace an older Technics model. I concurrently bought a Music Hall mmf 2.3 SE on sale to compare performance. Same price.

This is the best turntable for your money. Setup easy. Sound perfect.

Beautiful and sounds great

Ordered a RT85 from Fluance and although the table is very nice looking, the dust cover had a slice off the bottom missing. Kinda like when you slice cheese off the block and its uneven. I called customer service and they wanted me to send some pictures. I sent them off and when they responded, they told me it was a factory defect that happens. Okay, so are you sending a new dust cover or?? Nope, we are not sending you one. I was miffed to say the least so I sent it back for a refund. A small issue like I had, lost them a 500$ sale because of poor quality control and poor management. The other issue was that the table had poor isolation which sounded like a microphone when tapping on the plinth. Looks are not everything so buyer beware. Disappointed.

Absolutely fantastic turntable! This has got to be the best bang-for-your-buck turntable on the market. The sound quality is phenomenal as well as the build construction. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a great turntable at a reasonable price.

For Christmas, I got the Fluance RT80. I had about 4 or 5 U2 records on vinyl that I had bought over the years, just because I love the band and loved having the physical object with the big 12 covers and inserts and the cool looking albums.

I went back and forth with a number of different tables including a Rega P1 or a Pro-Ject Debut. Fluency showed up later in the picture, but the RT85 ticked all of my boxes. Even though Fluance is a newer brand, lots of reviews recommended their products and any skepticism was quashed once I got my RT85.

The sound is absolutely incredible, but make sure you buy the fluance phono preamp with the record player. The clarity and sound of this is unreal
