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

This was a long-considered upgrade to an old Bang and Olufsen TX2 with an aged MMC3 cart. The unit was easy to unpack and setup and I was playing records within the hour. The documentation is thorough and the performance is exceptional at this price point. The Ortofon 2M Blue is able to extract detail from my older records that I hadnt heard before. Once I add the Fluance record weight this table will be even quieter and capable. Very satisfied with this purchase!

Great sound and great look.

My daughter started getting into vinyl so we bought her a Bluetooth Audio Technica and BT speaker. Since we both have the same taste in music I got the bug too, but I wanted an all analog turntable setup. After doing some research I landed on the Fluance RT85.

Love the auto shut off. Easy to set up and great quality!

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.

Definitely recommend this turntable. I believe it is probably the best turntable under $1000. So easy to set up. Sounds amazing. I mean the stylus on this turntable alone is worth half the price of the turntable and you get an acrylic platter.

Blue ortofon is a little light in the low frequencies. Bought for my daughter who wanted to upgrade to something substantial.

Love my new Turntable! But I was most impressed with this companies customer service! We had an issue that they made right before I even had time to complain. Super impressed all around.

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.

Good decision and great value and performance with the price. I will highly recommend
