I wasn't hearing my music. 1 people found this helpfulAfter owning a cheaper record player and being relatively happy for many years, I bought myself a nice record player. I did not know what I was missing.. literally. The amount of detail that came through was almost mind shattering. I have been re-listening to all of my records, because I didn't know what I was missing and its like I have a whole new record collection.

I Give This Turntable 4.45 Stars 2 people found this helpfulI'm not very good at writing reviews, and don't really enjoy it. However I felt I had to give some thoughts. The package was shipped very quickly and carefully. The instructions are very detailed and well written. I did not use the gloves (sorry) but nice touch! I ordered walnut and love the color because it matches the wood vaneer of my other stereo components. Although I do wish the finish was more satin and not as glossy (fingerprint magnet). The Turntable is dead silent. I tested the wow and flutter with a free app(probably not the most accurate) and averaged a wow and flutter of +-0.15% with 33 1/3 and +-0.10% for 45rpm. More than the claimed 0.07%, but still below the accepted 0.25% maximum. Trust me, nobody will be able to hear that. The tonearm is light and easy to swap headshells. Unfortunately the counterweight markings are nearly impossible to read without optimal lighting. Even then, I had to shine a flashlight on the counterweight to accurately dial in my tracking force. So Fluance, use a brighter, bolder shade of white to mark the tonearm weight and anti-skate. I reccomend customers buy a tonearm scale from Amazon (it's very inexpensive at below $15) and check the tracking force with it. I got mine fine dialed onto 1.85 grams for my MP110 cartridge. And this is a sweet cartridge! Better dynamics and detail than my AT95E, not harsh at all! I went with the Nagaoka because I have Klipsch RP-500M speakers, and I felt the 2M Blue would sound too fatigued with my speakers, and the MP110 is supposed to be quite a bit more warm, which is my reason for choosing the 85N. I have the turntable going into the phono input of my 1970s Sansui 661 stereo receiver. The whole combination makes for an excellent sounding system. I'm not an audiophile, but an enthusiast. I believe this turntable is worth the price, and that it might be the best turntable available right now for $500. I don't see myself needing to upgrade for many years. Once you get a turntable like this, it's not worth upgrading because the benefits don't really match the price increase. That's just my opinion though.

Fluance Rocks - Great Value, High Quality 0 people found this helpfulMy 1980s vintage JVC belt-drive wasn't stable anymore. The Fluance with the RT81 package was the ticket. I did a lot of research, looked at a lot of used turntables on eBay. Forget buying used if you are into vinyl. Fluance hasn't disappointed: great value for money, wonderful upgrade, wonderfully stable and great sound and set-up of the cartridge. First few hours: better than what I had, after rechecking tracking and anti-skate, blowing me away on jazz, rock, classical. Great quality and value for money
