Brent from customer service emailed me answers to my RT-85N questions within 48 hours. His concise answers helped me select my final purchase, which I'm making today. Fast, straightforward personal customer service is a rarity these days, and Fluance came through. Brent is one of the major reasons I chose to buy a Fluance turntable.

Love the finish...it is a beautiful turntable. The performance of this turntable is many times better than my old unit with much more clarity and fullness of sound. It is very easy to set up and has very clear instructions for the set up.
