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

Super Plattenspieler. Toller Klang.

Seems to be a good quality sound is way better than my pioneer. Time will tell if it was worth it.

Its perfect

Solid construction through and through. Instructions easy to follow. Sounds great and looks great. I would consider this a semi automatic table due to it shutting off when reaching end of the record. My one suggestion for improvement would be to have the tone arm lift to be a little further from the tone arm and dimly lite to easily spot it. Also great quality cartridge.

Absolutly love thiz turntable, the gloss walnut really looks nice but its gonna be stinker to keep dusted. Assembly is fairly easy when you pay attention to the directions.mine unlike some other reviews only came with 1 ground wire so keep that in mind if your going to be using pre amp with this turntable.

Ditto

Well, sadly my case wasnt great.

Technics SL-3300 Fully Automatic Direct Drive Turntable I bought in 1979 finally gave up. I gave it to my son who wanted to fix it.

So I started my vinyl hobby by stealing my moms Crosley 5-in-1 record player and taking it to college with me. That was a year and a half ago. After getting acquainted with the Crosley, I started buying some of my favorite albums on vinyl. The first record I bought was Business As Usual by Men At Work. I played that record hundreds of times, much to the annoyance of my two roommates. Eventually I became dissatisfied with the built-in speakers and the tinny quality the Crosley would produce. Sometimes it was playing brand-new records and it would skip which is apparently a common issue among the brand. I would send records back to where they came from or frame them instead of listening to them.

After researching turntables for a year, decided on the Rt85 and Im so glad I did. The upgrade from my Audio Technica LP60 is a giant step. And albums that skipped on on my AT turntable play through perfectly on the Rt85.
