I have this exact unit. I love it. I was torn between this and the LP3, but went with Fluance because I knew I would eventually want to play around with cartridges and it is so much easier to do that with a standard mount. The auto stop is good enough for me versus the LP3s full auto. Aesthetics played a small role as well. It looks AMAZING with the black acrylic mat from Hudson Hifi. Heads up, if you read the manual, Fluance recommends a full 24-hour break-in for the motor and spindle. I didn't do it because I didn't read the manual, but I am sure they print it for a reason.

I love that there is a built-in preamp also cause we have a small apartment and not a lot of experience with preamps and amplifiers so this paired with some active speakers is a great starter setup with room for upgrades. Very excited to start saving up.

More presents and Grandma's home baked cookies! You sit down for dinner and you have to say grace. You hope you don't mess it up.

It is a very good turntable, & with the AT95e (now en, I think) or the blue 95c being absolutely affordable for another day, the only real reason to consider the 81 is for the option of faux, wood veneer, if such is desirable. You won't regret getting it. I'll be honest, I wasn't so "blown away " by the ortifon blue, it to me, didn't sound too very different from the at95e, & utterly paled to the Nagaoka mp110, again that was my opinion after listening to each on my TT, through my system, (was then a Pioneer sx680, rt81, & Pioneer pl518, through paradigm mk3s, & I'm a punk rock, & metal ...person, so may be worlds different for you, or whomever)

From what I’ve seen, go with the Fluance. It may cost more, but the build quality looks better than the U-Turn. I’m a direct drive person myself, but if I were to get a belt drive TT, I’d get the Fluance with the Ortofon 2m Blue. I’d get the Blue because I’m an audiophile.

The shiny piano black finish is a bit meh, but I think they also have some type of walnut veneer.

Your #1 task after setting up the turntable is to get rid of that AT cartridge. There's no reason to use a conical stylus. The only reason they added that one is because it's dirt cheap and you can get started right away playing records. At least get a cart with an elliptical stylus.
@Recordology8 ай бұрын
The audio Technica, 3600 is a fantastic stereo cartridge… And conical styli are actually preferred in certain sonic circumstances. Especially if playing older and deteriorated records, elliptical styli can be a lot noisier.
@platterjockey8 ай бұрын
Face it: the majority of people who buy a Fluance will not be playing such records. The cart just doesn't track well on your average stereo LP. You are not getting the best sound quality. Also, not all elliptical styli are noisy. An average Fluance user probably shouldn't get a microline, line-contact, or Shibata, but a good elliptical is a perfect balance, and you can still safely play 45s on them.@@Recordology

Double length video. Either Fluance is the brand name, or it means "Fluid Operations", such as with the tonearm. Maybe the tonearm has a cushioned system, to avoid record damage. Sort of like 👍 your car's 🚗 shocks, but against the record. Maybe "Fluance", means "Nuance", although I'd have to Google "Nuance", for the meaning. My stepmother 🚶 bought me a Popsy record player a couple 💑 of years ago, I think, for my 47th, or 48th birthday 🎂. The only thing I didn't need to hear her say, is that she paid $600.00 for it. I was going to tease her with this, but I'd forgotten to, and last September (2020) 28th, she passed away from a stroke (we think). Sounds like a nice metal record player. I even like 👍 the smoke 🚬 colored plastic lid. I think ya can play records with the lid closed. I like 👍 strobe discs. They're so therapeutic. I could stare at it all day long.
