I purchased both this table and their rt80, as I have multiple setups, and let me start by saying, finally a company who does it right! Build quality on this thing is of the up most quality. Everything is in line, clean, and runs beautifully. Aesthetically, the rt81 is gorgeous, but it is not only eye candy...the sound quality of this turntable is unrivaled, even of more expensive tables. I was using the built in preamp through my denon 9.1 avr setup and was just throttled by how rich a sound I was getting out of such a well built machine. I honestly do not think there is a better company making turntables, with or without a preamp, any where near this price point for the quality machine you are getting. There are so many poor built turntables out there now that just eat your records with bad needles and poor quality control....this, however, this not one of them. Setup was a breeze, i was listening to my records ten minutes after unboxing it. They even took the time to package it very thoughtfully, as to ensure the safety of all the components during travel. Clearly this is a company who cares. Customer service even followed up by calling to ask if I had any questions and if I was satisfied, i didn't even think good customer service existed anymore! Alas, i was wrong! The truth of it is you are getting one of the best built and sounding turntables on the market at an unbelievable price. I did, however, receive a discount for an honest review, and because I was so impressed with the build and sound quality of the rt80, I bought the rt81 for my other setup. Do yourself a favor if you are in the market for a new turntable, and buy one of fluances tables.

Model reviewed: Fluance RT81 Summary: after first trying one of those "suitcase" players - this turntable sounds absolutely brilliant. Key points: • Some assembly required, but the instructions are simple and clear. • Balancing the tonearm is straightforward and inspires confidence that your vinyl is protected. • There are built-in pre-amp outputs AND traditional phono-outs. When using pre-amp, you don't need to connect the "ground" to anything. • It's heavy and solid, feels super well-built. All the controls feel high quality. • Auto-stop feature works well. • Minimalist aesthetic looks great. • Canadian company, made in Taiwan. I couldn't be happier with this purchase. The pre-outs work great with my Sonos Port to add a turntable to my full-house system, and the sound quality is amazing. The first time I heard it play, I became a believer in vinyl. It sounds warmer overall, and the highs just sound somehow more natural than digital streaming. Not to mention it's fun and nostalgic to drop the needle old-school style on your favorite records. The minimalist style looks great and it's very simple to use after a short setup process. I'm no audiophile (yet), but I did a lot of research to make a purchase that wouldn't break the bank and wouldn't be a weakness in some future hypothetical audiophile system. This stylus cartridge is not supposed to be high-end, but it sure sounds nice. As per their support, this model is NOT compatible with Ortofon styli - the heights and the counterweights are just a bit off. Not a deal breaker for most people, but just be aware. However, if I want to go with a dedicated pre-amp someday, it's fully supported by this turntable. Super happy with this purchase, highly recommend this product and this company.

It's the end of 2019 and my late-70's Sanyo turntable that has been in my family since I was a wee lad has finally given up the ghost. When it was new, it was a solid mid-range turntable with nice features like direct drive, auto play and return, and easily-adjusted speed. It lasted forty years, which is more than I can say about most modern pieces of audio equipment. A moment of silence, please. When looking for a replacement turntable, I found that I wasn't able to find a decent model that had all of the functions of my old turntable unless I was willing and able to plop down more cash than was possible while keeping my marriage intact. I get it. Records are now and will remain a niche format at best, so the economies of scale dictate that the cost of obtaining a solid turntable is going to be higher than the days when vinyl was the dominant audio format. Still, I was determined to get the best quality turntable that I could afford. My demands were few, but important: It had to be well-constructed. - While I don't expect the turntable to last me for the rest of my life, it had to feel solid and use durable materials. It had to have decent sound. - While I still have decent hearing, I'm in my late-40's, so the days when I could easily discern minute differences in frequency are in the past. With that said, I love my records and want to get the best possible sound quality out of them. Yes, records have shortcomings. Even the best-maintained record may have the occasional pop or crackle. However, a well-mastered and pressed album can deliver audio that stands toe-to-toe with most modern digital releases. Yes, high-res digital audio files have been released for many albums, but everything comes down to mastering and there are a lot of albums being sold as high-res that sound terrible. A container is only as good as the audio it contains. It had to allow me to easily change the cartridge, stylus, and shell and allow for the necessary adjustments when doing so. - I don't care how nice the cartridge and stylus are that are included with a turntable; they wear out over time. Also, there are more often than not better-quality options for these items on the market. It had to provide assurance that it wouldn't tear up my records. - When I see people buying a Crosley or any other ultra-cheap turntable I want to grab them by the shoulders and beg them to turn away from the dark path on which they are heading. If you're willing to pay the inflated prices that records go for these days, especially newer pressings, the last thing you want to do is play them on a turntable that has a tracking force so high that you may as well be using a sewing needle. Taking all of this "must-have's" into account, anything else offered by a particular model would be icing on the cake. I looked around at audiophile sites, publications, etc. and, after laughing at some of the models that were touted as "good buys" that cost as much as a semester at college, I saw the same brand mentioned time and time again: Fluance. Fluance has garnered a healthy reputation as a company that offers a wide range of turntables that deliver solid performance for quite reasonable prices. Like all turntable manufacturers, they offer some high-end models, but even the models toward the lower end of their catalog don't skimp on the necessities. The RT81 falls into the lower end of their range, but I have to say that I'm impressed with it. It was easy to assemble and the parts are constructed of sturdy materials. It offers a built-in preamp for those without phono inputs on their receiver, however it is easily disabled via a switch on the rear of the turntable should you have an external preamp or one built into your receiver. I had no trouble at all switching out the included cartridge and stylus with an Ortofon Red that I had been using on my old turntable (Those are amazing, by the way.) and making the adjustments on the tone arm. I've been putting the turntable through its paces quite a bit since its arrival and am very satisfied with the audio quality. It doesn't blow away some of the more expensive turntables I've listened to, but it's very good, especially considering its cost. It is good enough that, should I find myself in a position wherein I can afford a more expensive turntable, I wouldn't hesitate considering one of Fluance's higher-end models. The fact that there was obvious care put into one of their lower-end models speaks volumes about the company. Do I miss the extra features I had on my Sanyo that are lacking on the Fluance RT81? Sure. With that said, the RT81 has so far delivered very solid, no-frills performance and I'm more than satisfied with my purchase.
