    I wanted this to work well, but there was always a low frequency buzzing sound (ground probably), I was disappointed so I returned it.

    You get high-end audio quality at a very reasonable price. It also looks good with the wood-like plinth. It comes with a very good phono cartridge, which is probably the best thing about this turntable.

    This turntable is absolutely beautiful to lay eyes upon. With a preamp already installed this was perfect for my home audio setup. There is some setup required but the included manual walks you through the process without leaving any step to guessing. The audio quality is reproduced fantastic through my Sony receiver through my Polk Audio speakers the audio is great. In my case my speakers would be to blame for any audio issues as they are the weak point in my setup. Absolutely impressed with the build quality of this turntable and will consider Fluance in all audio decisions in the future.

    Beautiful looking polished walnut colored plinth wood (MDF) turntable with good quality sound for the money. Not automatic. Only the arm will return when the record ends automatically. It has a built in preamp as an option if needed. Wired speakers are needed through a receiver for sound. Im not an audiophile so its fine for me. Diamond (Audio Technica) stylus is included and its really nice. This turntable is good for a beginner or anyone on a budget that doesnt require the best sound. If you do buy the next model up.

    Bought this turntable for my husband for Christmas and he absolutely loves it. It was packaged very well so no way for it to move around inside the box.

    I made the mistake of buying a janky victrola a couple of years ago pre pandemic because I had a few boxes of yard sale 45 singles I wanted to play. Well we all know what happens then, so I found myself with a few nice records and a junky record player! This fluance is perfect for me, auto stop, preamp, rpm selector, queue lever, and a decent cartridge. All those other player options like automatic queuing and return are just fluff. If you cant handle moving the tonearm by yourself records arent for you.

    First venture into the turntable market so I don’t know what’s what but this thing is very beautiful to look at for sure. I’m a novice when it comes to the vinyl world but this was pretty easy to set up. The directions were very clear and easy to follow for a first time. I didn’t quit do the 24 hour burn in as suggested, maybe 16 hours but no issues and sounds great. I’m hearing things I’ve never heard before on my favorite albums!

    Obviously high quality design, materials, and construction; very clear assembly instructions; trouble-free operation and fine sound. It would be nice if there were an automatic tone-arm return upon reaching the end of a side, but not worth compromising any of the other features of the product.

Fluance’s RT81 High Fidelity Turntable plays traditional LP and EP vinyl records with stunning quality that achieves the purest sound reproduction. When you want the absolute best in music performance, pull out your favorite 33 1/3 or 45 RPM records, hook up your sound system, drop the needle, and immerse yourself in the Fluance RT81 Record Player.

Premium components allow this belt driven turntable to produce a pure uncompressed listening experience that recreates the performance the way the artist intended.

Superior Stylus Makes for a Pure Analog Listening Experience
Your music will sound richer when the Audio Technica AT95E stylus rests in the grooves of your favorite vinyl record at a mere 2.0 grams of tracking force. The upgraded elliptical stylus is renowned for its freedom from noise and distortion, clarity on musical peaks, and channel balance.

Complete Clarity Without Compromising Your Collection
You"ll savor every note thanks to the balanced and adjustable counterweight of the S-Type tonearm. The fluid movement of the bearings within the tonearm coupled with the advanced anti-skating system practically caresses your record, preventing scratching and ensuring the stylus is perfectly rested deep in your record’s groove while splendidly coaxing the music out of your vinyl.

Premium Components
Captivating signal clarity is produced with a high quality Texas Instruments preamp, ground terminal and gold plated RCA line outputs that ensures high fidelity sound in its truest form.

Designed for Serious Performance

The walnut finished cabinet is crafted from solid audio-grade (MDF) wood which reduces vibrations to ensure the stylus provides the best possible signal. Sound isolation feet, an aluminum platter and a Rubber Platter Mat significantly reduce reverberation, leaving you with pure stereophonic sound.
