Fluance RT81 Elite High Fidelity Vinyl Turntable Record Player with Audio Technica AT95E Cartridge, Belt Drive, Built-in Preamp, Adjustable Counterweight, High Mass MDF Wood Plinth - Walnut

gift

I like this turntable. It is well built and looks nice. The setup process was nice and smooth. The auto on/off feature is nice. I am not an expert in turn tables, so I cant make a lot of comparisons. After more research I wish I had spent just a little more money on an upgraded model, but I still think this is a really good value for my needs just starting out.

Great turntable. Sounds phoneminal...w/ a couple of bookshelf speakers. There is a little patience required setting up properly so its not for beginners. It is definitely not giftable unless they are a little techy. Im very pleased.

Like other reviewers, I too was pleased with

Wonderful build quality and pretty simple to set up. Grab some good speakers, good music and get ready for good times!

This turntable is fantastic! The built-in preamp does wonders for sound quality! This puts my previous turntable to shame! It also looks far more elegant. I would recommend to anyone. Get a quality turntable like this to really experience the quality sound of vinyl.

I really like the look and how easy it was to put together with the instructions. The only problem I had was my Onkyo receiver didn’t have a phono preamp built into it. Because of the preamp built into the Fluance turntable, I could barely hear the music, but I could understand what was being played. It was disappointing. A few weeks later I ordered a Pyle phono preamp; hooked it up to the turntable and the Onkyo receiver and now I hear everything crystal clear. It’s been years since I had a turntable and it brings joy and the memories of painful times when I listen to my albums. Summing it up, all things work together for the good.

I bought this turntable as a gift to myself as I am reviving my vinyl collection. The turntable is very easy to set up and the pre-mounted cartridge is a breeze to install. Ive had mine for several months and have really enjoyed it. One thing to note however is the tonearm does not return back to the cradle once the album is finished. It simply shuts off at the end of the record. Not a big deal but worth mentioning if you think its a fully automatic turntable. The plinth is very nice. I thought about upgrading to an Ortofon cartridge but decided to enjoy this table just like it is.

Very nice turntable. It’s my first!! I have had it now for 6 months or so. Recently upgraded to a 2m blue cartridge and acrylic plater. So basically it’s a R-85. So many pros on this model. Nice solid piece of audio equipment.

The WireCutter says its one of the best, and it is. I bought this to replace a vintage turntable, I ended up selling the vintage turntable, and having extra cash left over.
