Product Review (submitted on April 8, 2021):
I really can’t knock it for the price. The Ortofon Blue cartridge does a nice job, also. The RT-85 does an adequate job of rejecting vibration, which was a big problem with the Audio-Technica I was previously using. The performance of the motor and belt seem rock steady to my ears. Be advised: you will need to purchase phono preamp. I chose the Fluance, and it sounds very transparent. So, be planning on spending an extra hundred bucks. I notice a bit of the sound of the motor/platter when my amplifier is cranked and the needle is down, but once the music starts it’s not an issue. I’m giving it 5-stars at this price point.
