Product Review (submitted on June 16, 2021):
Got the RT85 to replace 7-8 year old Denon DP300 with Ortofon 2M Red. I was going to upgrade to the 2M Blue and really started listening to my vinyl collection for the first time in years. In reconnecting with my TT I became aware of quite a bit of noise/rumble when I cued an album manually. So I started researching new TT possibilities. The Fluance RT85 kept coming up as an incredible value. I purchased the RT85. It came as described, well packed with short helpful instructions. In assembling the TT I was impressed how much more solid it felt compared to my Denon. Now for the performance, WOW! Mechanics are smooth and quiet. Audio is Great! The combination of the isolated motor, the beautiful acrylic platter and the 2M Blue works magic for me.
