> 24 hourThis TT is amazing. Easy to setup had it running in 20 minutes. Packaging was a-1 and looks awesome. Sounds great on my Yamaha RX-A2080 and klipsch setup. You won’t be disappointed with this turntable. Do it push the buy button!

> 24 hourQuality components, smooth speed control. Might upgrade the needle to the OM-30 some day, but sounds pretty good with the stock needle.

> 24 hourGreat player for the money. Most people will have no problem with the little bit of assembly and setup required. It isnt 100% plug and play so I gave it 4 stars in the for beginners category but its by no means difficult. If you can hook up a component system you wont have any trouble with it. Ive never owned a higher end table so I cant compare but I have owned the more expensive Crosley turntable and that one wasnt nearly as good as the Fluance. If youre upgrading from an all in one suitcase style record player its a night and day difference. If you have no interest in future upgrades get the RT80 or RT81. If you want value with the ability to upgrade later get the RT82 or higher. Im sure the high end tables are better but I definitely think this one is at the point of diminishing return where youre not getting much more by spending a lot more money.

> 24 hourthe people who make products why wont you look at it from the stand point of the customer. tonearm adjustment is a joke when you can barely see the numbers. no place for the 45 adapter. finish is so dark you cant see the wood grain.

> 24 hourThis is my first new turntable in perhaps 50 years. Back then most were record changers (Garrard, Dual, etc.) or the first of the consumer belt drive tables (Sansui, Technics, etc.). After the complexity of those units it is amazing just how very simple this manual table really is. Basically just a platter, motor, and tone arm as separate items on a wood base to hold them all together. The simplicity almost seems like a toy but it does the job intended and sounds great in the process. I bought the RT82 model for the electronic speed control and am not disappointed. If you are new to vinyl or just rediscovering like me this is a great table for you.

> 24 hourBought the bamboo/natural wood grain version, two of them. Then upgraded to the acrylic platter. Here is where my trouble began. To make a long story short....if you upgrade to an Audio Technica 520/530/540 cartridge you will need an additional mat. I used an acrylic mat on top of the acrylic platter. Everything worked like it should. Sounded great. What I found out was that the Ortofon OM Cartridge has more depth in reaching the platter. When I used the Audio Technica it would not reach all the way down to the album. Hence the additional acrylic mat. So I replaced the Orotofon OM10 that comes with the turntable with an OM20 stylus and it was well worth the money. It actually sounds better than the Audio Technica VM540 cartridge and stylus. I also got rid of the additional acrylic mat. This is really a sweet sounding turntable with the OM20 upgrade.

> 24 hourI can not say enough how happy I am with the purchase of this turntable. Out of the box and in about 15 minutes we were listening to our albums. They sound fantastic. I purchased the RT82. If you purchase this model make sure you have Phono port on our stereo. I did not realize they stopped putting these on Stereos. I had to have add a Preamp. I purchased the ART DJPREII Phono Preamplifier and the sound is great. Originally I had a different preamp and the bass was not very good. However when I switched to the DJPREII the Bass was perfect. I also got the Piano Black and my daughter got the Walnut. both look great but really like the black!

> 24 hourOnly thing missing for me in this model is a strobe and variable speed. Seems like it is on target regardless, I like this turntable and cartridge. Running it direct via the supplied 3ft cable to my AV receiver Phono input.
