## Description

Product description Experience unparalleled vinyl playback with the Fluance Reference High Fidelity Turntable . Meticulously engineered for the discerning vinyl listener to reproduce audio recordings exactly as the musician intended. Pure Analog Performance The Reference turntable delivers a warm, uncompressed listening experience, allowing you to get lost in the music. With no electronics in the signal path, from stylus tip to the gold-plated RCA outputs, for an exceptionally pure sound. Nagaoka MP-110 Cartridge for Warm and Dynamic Sound High fidelity playback from the superfine polished elliptical diamond Nagaoka MP-110 cartridge featuring a more detailed, high precision, and authentic vinyl sound. Experience greater balanced tonal accuracy, resolution, and bass extension while accentuating every refined characteristic of your music. Clarity in the Sound with the Acrylic Platter The high density and greater mass of the acrylic provide increased inertia to achieve a consistent speed, while damping unwanted vibrations by trapping and dissipating the energy. Acrylic has an analogous resonant frequency to vinyl records to aid in the cancellation of undesirable reverberations resulting in a 3-dimensional soundstage with improved bass definition, a richer midrange, and greater signal clarity. Precision Playback with Motor Isolation and Speed Control The servo-controlled belt drive motor with speed regulating optical sensor, continuously measures and adjusts variances in linear velocity and acceleration within a few hundredths of a percent for a wow and flutter of 0.07%. The decoupling of the drive from the plinth suppresses motor vibrations and noise from reaching the stylus. This maintains accurate speed and significantly reduces rumble so your records sound perfect. Wood Plinth for Superior Resistance to Vibrations The mass-loaded multi-layered MDF wood chassis inhibits the transfer of unwanted resonance through the system. The 3 rubber, spike-type adjustable isolation feet minimize surface contact under the turntable resulting in immunity to environmental vibrations, for greater low frequency signal pickup and improved imaging.

Review: Fantastic turntable - Decided to get a turntable to listen to my hundreds of LPs from the 70's. Did a lot of research and landed on ordering the Fluance RT85N. It had great reviews and the product delivered. The turntable was straight forward to set up using the included instructions. Fluance has a setup video on their product web site that walks through the setup. It was very easy to connect to my Denon receiver and sounds fantastic. The Nagaoka MP-110 Stylus Nagaoka MP-110 stylus sounds great. It is warm, with great detail, and wonderful imaging. Reviewers say the Ortofon 2M Blue sounds brighter. Choice of cartridge is subjective and depends on what sound you prefer. I am very pleased with the sound of Nagaoka stylus. A couple of reviewers mentioned they preferred the Nagaoka MP-110 stylus for an older record collection. The turntable itself is very easy to use. Prefer the semi-automatic behavior of stopping at end of record. Brought life back to my albums that I haven't listened to in over 30 years. Couldn't be more pleased with the turntable.
Review: I absolutely love my Fluance RT85N - I absolutely love my Fluance RT85N. The black finish with the acrylic platter looks sleek and modern, and it feels solid and well-built right out of the box. But more importantly, it sounds incredible. The included Nagaoka MP-110 cartridge delivers a warm, detailed sound with excellent clarity and separation. Vocals are rich and natural, and the bass is tight without being overpowering. Speed is stable, setup was straightforward, and it runs quietly. For the price, this turntable performs well above expectations. If you’re serious about vinyl and want premium sound without going into ultra high-end pricing, the RT85N is a fantastic choice.

*by M***R on November 11, 2025*

Awesome record player worth the cost. This is real record player. I hooked it to my amp and speakers and sounds great. I had to redo the balance on the arm after some scratching and static pops but now works excellent. Easy fix I missed at set up.
