Customer Reviews

I've been collecting for years but I've recently started to get more serious about how I store and play my records. I was using a Crosley previously, and after doing some reading realized I've been unintentionally hurting my records. Whoops. I wanted something nicer, but I couldn't afford the $800+ systems. I stumbled on Fluance and decided to bite the bullet on what seemed like a much more affordable option. For a newbie like me the set up was actually pretty easy. The shipping materials were really hardcore, so they really care how they pack and send their turntables and speakers. This thing is really beautiful and the sound quality is insane. It's definitely the nicest thing I own. I bought the Fluance cleaner as well and how it tidies up the sound on my older vinyl is great. Overall 4234809380/10 would recommend. I especially love their blog posts which are super helpful for those who are just getting their feet wet on vinyl care, stereo set up, etc.

There is function, and there is form, and this setup means you have oodles of both! Clean, pristine, this rug will do it all! As a veteran of the Fluance turntables from RT80 thru RT82, they are sublimely perfect! Tonearm is terrific, the auto-stop feature is brilliant just so much to love! The new piece here is the powered Bluetooth Ai40’s which though diminutive looking, they fill a room with sound! Easy to use remote, lightning fast response when switching songs or changing volume, simple connectivity!
Only nit-picky things I would say is remote needs to be other than just line of sight, allowing quick mute when phone rings or a pause of a streaming song.
But I love it, classy looks with serious bang for the buck you can’t beat it for value...solid 4.5 stars! -
I purchased this product for a dear friend of mine for his birthday, he had containers full of LPs and I was sad to see that he was not able to enjoy them. For research purposes I went to YouTube to see the actual product. I was stuck between the RT81and RT80. I found that there was not a lot of difference between them with the exception of the needle and a few other small things. YouTube was a great help in assisting in making my decision. I purchased the RT80 with the Ai40 speakers. The quality of both products exceeded my expectations and I am more than happy to recommend this product to anyone. One thing I will say is that you may need to get longer and durable speaker wire. Other than that, this product is amazing.
