Review: Very good record player. - This player is a nice sweet spot between the cheaper and lesser quality “suitcase” or combo record players and something more legitimate like a technics sl-1200. Now, the 1200 is another league than this unit in virtually every way but if you’re looking for a player with a “hi fi” sound output and good overall build quality to pair with some decent book shelf or home speakers then look no further. This player will get the job done admirably. Now, if you’re in a studio or have a high fidelity sound system then look for a used technics 1200 and a good phono preamp as it will certainly be better. For the price, I think it’s fair. It would be a steal if it were $50 cheaper but even at $299 it’s reasonably priced. Highlights: the cartridge is good, much better than anything you’ll find on a suitcase or combo record player. The cartridge is also upgradable should you desire. The tone arm is metal. The feet do a decent job at isolating noise. Controls are not over designed. Set up was simple. Counter weight and anti skate options help dial in a consistent experience. It’s pleasing to look at with a clean, smooth, and shiny finish. Very good sound quality. What could be better: it’s belt driven instead of direct driven, which can be expected at this price point given the other features. The 45 adapter is a simple plastic piece, it’d be nice if it were metal and/or the player had a recess to store it in. The rca cord in the box is maybe 6 ft which is okay but also limiting at the same time. A track light would really set it apart for use in a dim room. Things to know: it needs to be grounded, unlike the budget players you’ll find. This improves sound quality but it is something to be prepared for. Speeds are 33/45, no 78 option while although uncommon it’s something to keep in mind based on your collection. Overall it’s a quality player and a healthy step up over the entry level players. Would recommend.
Review: Beautiful look and amazing quality - This turntable is very solid built has a beautiful sound and finish on it is like a mirror. The packaging was very protected. The set up manual was easy to understand and follow I’m very pleased with this player. The 3 point design really makes it stable and vibration dampening awesome. I recommend this brand 100%

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Top Quality for the money
*by M***T on September 20, 2025*

The Fluance RT81+ plus is an absolutely Amazing turntable for the money, it comes with the AT-VMN95E stylus which sounds fantastic for your average vinyl listener and the Audio-Technica VM95 upgrade path is perfect for a step up in stylus qualty down the road, and this is the only reason I went with the RT81+ over the Fluance RT82 with the Ortofon OM10. The OM10 is a good quality stylus, but I much prefer the VM95E for clarity. That said, I have had 2nd thoughts about not getting the RT82 for a few reasons, but they're personal and nit picky reasons. Either way, you wont find a better value for the money in any turntable in the Fluance turntable line. Excellent counter balance and anti-skate tracking, solid wood body and a beautiful finish, durable and well made.I studied and scoured the internet for a sub $350 turntable and nothing even comes close in that price range. Satisfied and happy. If you're in that price range dint buy anything else!
