## Overview

The Fluance RT85 Reference Turntable is a premium vinyl player featuring the acclaimed Ortofon 2M Blue elliptical cartridge, a high-density acrylic platter for vibration damping, and a servo-controlled speed motor ensuring ultra-precise playback.

## Description

Experience unparalleled vinyl playback with the Fluance Reference High Fidelity Turntable. Meticulously engineered for the discerning vinyl listener to plays 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. Ortofon 2M Blue Cartridge for Spectacular Accuracy Beautiful playback from the nude elliptical 2M Blue cartridge featuring a rich, and natural sound. Adding greater dynamics and resolution, reproducing more detail while maintaining a flat frequency response for a pure sound without any coloration. 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. Acrylic has an analogous resonant frequency to vinyl records to aid in the cancelation of reverberations resulting in a 3-dimensional soundstage with improved bass definition, a richer midrange, and greater signal clarity. Precision Playback with Motor Isolation & Speed Control The servo-controlled belt drive motor with speed regulating optical sensor continuously measures and adjusts variances in linear velocity and acceleration for a wow & 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 reduces rumble so your records sound perfect. Solid Wood Plinth For Superior Resistance to Vibrations The mass-loaded chassis inhibits unwanted resonance. The 3 rubber adjustable isolation feet minimize surface contact resulting in immunity to vibrations, for greater low-frequency signal pickup and improved imaging.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Full auto?**
A: I have the RT85 and Yes, it has auto stop. There is a switch on the back of the turntable so you can choose auto stop or just let the album keep spinning when the stylus reaches the inner groove. This is really cool for the handful of albums that have something in the inner groove. A few examples are- The Beatles Sgt Pepper, Side 4 of The Eagles live, Ringo The 4th. They just keep going...

**Q: What is the size of the box (package) from RT85?**
A: According to Fluance, the shipping dimensions for the RT85 are 8.25 x 17.5 x 19.5 inches (H x L x W).  The weight is 20 lbs.

**Q: What is the difference between fluance rt84 and fluance rt85?**
A: I am confused by some of the responses as from my research, the RT84 is about $115 less, not $50, and BOTH TTs have the Ortofon Blue, which is really hard to believe with the Fluance RT84 being under 385 bux!!!!   That is even less than  the renowned Pro-Ject Debut Carbon with the much less expensive (but also great) Ortofon Red cartridge. The only difference I can see is the heavier Acrylic platter on the 85 versus aluminum on the 84, and thus about a 2 pound weight difference on the two TTs.   Maybe that is worth the extra $115 bux  that I am seeing in the pricing right now, don't know. Definitely a good upgrade tho.

**Q: I have to downgrade my stylist to a ortofon 10. do i need a different cartridge? like a ortofon super i’m**
A: if you can, stay with the blue or red is $$ is an issue, I am in awe of the quality it brings to the playback, when I get some $$$ i'll upgrade the uplevel black (or better) stylus, again, very impressed with the Ortofon line
