Customer Reviews
-
I had my eye on Fluance since I started getting back into records and was looking for a simple setup that did not compromise sound. As soon as I saw this Anniversary Edition offered, I was sold.
Setup was easy and the instructions were clear. I was up and running within 30 min but I could've been faster, I wanted to take my time and take it all in. Everything was meticulously packaged and cared for. This is quality stuff.
The sound coming out of it was excellent. My first record was Nirvana Unplugged and every sound on that stage was coming through nicely. I was so happy about my decision.
The only bad part about it is that there is no upgrade path with these like there is with the Reference series. I wish that was an option for the RT81.
The speakers are really great as well. There are lots of reviews out there about the Ai40s. In person, they feel and sound solid and they are the perfect size for this setup in the family room. The bluetooth feature on the is really great as well.
Overall I am very happy with my purchase. If you are looking for a nice looking minimalistic setup, go for it! you will not be dissapointed.
