> 3 dayFirst of all, it is a beautiful turntable that is very easy to setup and use. For the price, I did not feel the sound quality was much different than lower cost options. If you don’t mind paying a bit more for a great statement piece then this is well worth the money.

> 3 dayThe needle fell off within 30 minutes of using the record player, and now has to be replaced. Also, the wires included for speakers were terrible quality.

Greater than one weekPurchased in December 2017 and the RCA input has already failed. Its a beautiful unit and sounded nice, but definitely disappointed it didnt hold up longer. Its now outside of its warranty so no help from Fluance and the repair is likely to be as much as a new unit so Ill probably just replace it.

> 3 dayIt’s not a high end item. Neither is the price. But this is as good as my 70’s technics that cost more than this at a time when an LP cost $4. Paired with phono preamp, a tube cube amplifier and Klipsch rp-160 in a 15x20’ room sounds divine.

> 3 daySounded great out of the box. After about 4 records it started slowing down. Support tried to help, however after seeing the same issue from another reviewer here I decided to go another direction.

> 3 daySo far this turntable has been awesome. The setup was easy and it sounds great (in comparison to the decent AT-LP 60 that I replaced) It does take a bit to get adjusted to the manual operation, coming from an automatic record player, but the cue arm makes it pretty easy. It was packed very well from the factory and it looks as nice as it sounds.
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. Your soul will be captivated by the crisp, distinguishing characteristics of the music you love. 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.
