I was looking for a different look to take some hours off my inherited HH Scott PS-76 that I restored. The old silver on silver look just seems dated...but it's a great playing and sounding machine and will always cherish it. Decided on the RT82 in Bamboo and it's built like a tank and beautiful. Speeds are spot on out of the box. Setup was super easy. I purchased the full acrylic platter at the same time and it's very nice. All my previous carts/styli are all Japanese made Audio-Technica and they all look great and sound great on this player. The Ortofon OM10 that comes with this is my first listen to a European made cart and gotta say that for a bonded elliptical it's has great clarity and seperation, smooth mids, defined bass, but rolled off low-end drive. I found tracking it at 1.55 grams seemed to give the best sound. I love the design of the cart though, looks very unique. Highly recommend this player for the money. Can't imagine anything could be better.

I bought the Fluance RT82 as a replacement for an early 70's Technics SL 1500. Having used this direct drive unit for several decades, I was ready for something that required less fiddling to maintain constant platter speed while listening to records. The RT82 was straightforward to set up out of the box. The three adjustable isolation feet made leveling this unit far easier than the previous turntable that required various thicknesses of washers and coins under the 4 corners. The RT82 and speakers sit on the same shelf. There is no audible feedback or rumble I can hear when playing songs or with the amp at max volume and the platter spinning. All parts went together easily and fit snugly. Since my old turntable had an Ortofon 2M Red cartridge, I put this on the RT82 (essentially an upgrade to an RT83). The overall sound between the turntables is the same, though it seems the Fluance turntable with this cartridge has better L/R separation and less crosstalk. There is also less sibilance on cymbals and the letter s. This might be due to newer less oxidized tonearm wiring, or a factory vta set for a 20 degree cartridge. Both turntables use the same preamp/power amp combination so it is a headsup comparison. In any event, the RT82 is a good piece of equipment and a good value. I can finally put on an album and just listen again.

I usually can't be bothered to write reviews, but I had to leave for this record player. I have the rt82, and I am beyond pleased with it. It sounds fantastic, it looks and feels like a genuinely high quality product, and it comes with some great specs for the money. The Ortofon OM10 sound great and looks really cool, compared to your run of the mill boxy cartridge. Seem superficial, sure, but the cartridge is the business end of the record player, and seeing that thing glide along the grooves really stands out. The tonearm feels solid, the platter has no wobble, the plinth feels substantial, and really helps reduce vibrations. The dust cover is your standard dust cover, but the hinges are very solid and confidence inspiring. The sound isolating feet work/look great, and having the option to adjust the individual height is fantastic. I live in a pretty old house and if there is anything in this place that is level, I have yet to find it. With other record players, I had to resort to shoving felt pads under the feet to try and level it. This approach took a long time and looked tacky. Leveling out the rt82 took me 10 minutes tops (and only because I'm OCD about it and had to get it absolutely, undeniably level). The slipmat is rubber, which is a nice upgrade over the felt mat that comes with many record players. I personally like that the rt82 doesn't have a built in phono pre-amp. I'd rather have the option to experiment with external preamps, plus I feel like most internal phono pre-amps are mediocre at best. The anti-skate knob feels quality, and like it is actually doing what it's supposed to. I've had other record players and the anti-skate felt cheap and almost like the knob was just there to look cool. The counter weight is solid and stays where you put it. There is not major play between the arm and the knob, which inspires confidence that your adjustment is going to stay where it is supposed to. I like the belt drive system and how the belt is exposed vs hidden under the platter. Can't say one approach yields better results than the other, but again, it looks cool and that is a factor in the overall satisfaction with a product. The motor on the rt82 and up is supposed to come an optical sensor that checks the speed hundreds of times per second, to ensure the platter stays locked at 33 1/3 or 45 rpm. I measured my speed with RPM on my phone so take this result with a huge grain of salt, but RPM measured 33.5 rpm, which is about a .5% deviation from 33 1/3. I have A/B'd tracks between my records and spotify and I honestly can't hear a difference. It is very possible that RPM and the approach of trying to measure via your phone is what yields this inaccuracy, but thought it was worth mentioning. What I will say regarding the speed, is that I measured mine 6 times using the RPM app and it was 33.5 rpm every single time, so this motor is really on top of maintaining a consistent platter rotation. Very cool. A feature which I brushed off as a selling point when researching this record player is the auto stop. Granted, it is not a full-auto stop, where it lifts the tonearm and moves it back to home position, but rather, when the tonearm reaches the end of the record, it spins for roughly a minute, and then stops the motor. I didn't care less about this feature when researching, and saw that there was a switch on the back that turns this feature on or off, but after using it, I actually really like it. I'm usually around my record player actively listening, or using it as background music while I'm working on something. I've been in the middle of something multiple times when the record ends, and this feature really eliminates that Oh Crap feeling where you feel like you have to drop what you're doing to go lift the tonearm. On/Off knob is fine...it's a knob, feels quality enough for what it is designed for. Cueing lever is plastic and does feel cheaper compared to the rest of the table, but it's solid enough for what is is supposed to do. The tonearm latch is also kind of cheap feeling, but again, it is quality enough to serve it's intended purpose for the life of the table. Another cool feature about this player is that you can latch the tonearm while the queuing lever is up. My past record players would not allow this, so I would have to move the tonearm home, lower the cueing arm and then latch it. Often, I would forget that the cueing arm was not up and next time I went to start a record, I would drop the unsupported arm/cartridge hard on the record. Not anymore baby! Finally, the descent rate of the cueing lever is great. It is fast enough that you're not waiting 10 second for the arm to lower, but slow enough that it is a gentle drop every time you use it. Overall, I am extraordinarily happy with this record player. I did a lot of research before my purchase and this has to be in the top 3, if not the #1 (I vote #1). I look forward to many years of happy listening on this awesome record player.

Very good quality it sounds great. Beautiful finish. Only con is that the tone arm lift is a little too close to the tone arm rest. I would definitely recommend this turntable. Very pleased with product. I am somewhat of an audiophile. I have owned several turntables over the years and this one is by far the best ever. I listen to mostly classic rock prog rock and jazz. I have about 200 albums that range in condition from perfect to really bad. I'm using a pioneer receiver from the early 90's complimented with a technics EQ, a set of small ohm speakers and a sub sat set of infinity speakers. this turntable sounds awesome! I went with the RT82 so I could get the better motor and upgrade options. the separation is incredible I feel like I am hearing some of these albums for the first time. The highs are crisp and clear I had to adjust the EQ a little to soften them a little. Mids are good not too harsh. Had to increase the bass a little it's there but just needed a little boost nice and tight not muddy or distorted. Keep in mind I am talking classic/hard rock. the OM10 is very balanced for this table. Speed is spot on. No hum. Heavy and solid. Originally I intended to possibly upgrade the cartridge but now I'm not sure. It sounds great as is! This table is gorgeous. Classic styling. solid, quality construction. I usually don't bother to review products I purchase but in this case I am so impressed I felt compelled to give Fluance a thumbs up for offering a great product at a fare price that stands up to what it claims to be. Good for you Canada!
