Acrylic Platter Upgrade

The high density frosted acrylic platter replaces the standard platter on Fluance Reference RT82 RT83 RT84 RT85 turntables. Its greater mass increases rotational inertia for more consistent speed. The acrylic material damps micro vibrations that can colour the sound. A 760 gram steel record weight is included to couple the vinyl firmly to the platter surface.

Vibration Damping and Stability

The heavier acrylic platter and steel stabilizer work together to suppress unwanted resonance during playback. Improved contact between record and platter helps keep warped discs flatter. Stable rotation reduces speed fluctuations that cause pitch wobble. No power draw or active cooling is involved as the parts are purely mechanical.

Build and Daily Use

The platter and weight are finished in black and weigh 4.75 lbs combined. The acrylic platter sits directly on the turntable spindle without adapters. The steel weight rests on the record label area and lifts off by hand. Both pieces are solid metal and acrylic with no moving parts to wear out. They suit owners of the listed Reference models who want a simple mechanical upgrade.

Questions about this item

How do I fit the acrylic platter on my RT82 and what step is often missed?

Lift off the existing platter, place the acrylic platter on the spindle, then add the 760 gram steel weight on top of the record; the weight is the step many forget.

What maintenance or replacement will the platter and weight need over time?

The acrylic platter and steel weight are solid pieces with no moving parts; occasional dusting and checking that the spindle sits cleanly is all that is required.

What limit appears first during long listening sessions with the heavier platter?

The motor must handle the extra inertia of the acrylic platter plus the 760 gram weight; if the motor cannot maintain consistent speed, that is the first limitation.
