Reference turntable with Ortofon 2M Red

The Fluance RT83 is a belt-drive turntable built for listeners who want a complete analogue playback system in one box. It arrives with an Ortofon 2M Red elliptical cartridge pre-mounted, a speed-control motor, a record weight and a 3-in-1 cleaning kit. The plinth weighs 17.07 lbs and is finished in black.

Upgrade from entry decks with built-in preamps

Buyers moving up from all-in-one suitcase players or basic USB turntables gain a decoupled motor, optical speed regulation and a cartridge that tracks at 5.5mV output. The jump is worth it when vinyl is the primary source and surface noise has become distracting.

Straightforward setup with careful tonearm balance

The cartridge comes installed so only counterweight adjustment and anti-skate setting are required. The included stylus brush and record cleaner reduce pops, but the tonearm lacks a VTA dial so vertical tracking angle cannot be fine-tuned.

Questions about this item

How much shelf space does the 17.07 lbs Fluance RT83 need?

The turntable weighs 17.07 lbs and requires a sturdy, level surface that can support that weight plus the included record weight; allow several centimetres of clearance around the plinth for the isolated motor and belt drive.

What is the correct sequence for fitting the Ortofon 2M Red cartridge and setting the 0.07% wow/flutter speed control?

Mount the supplied 2M Red cartridge on the tonearm, set the tracking force to the cartridge specification, place the belt on the motor pulley and platter, then engage the servo-controlled motor; the optical sensor will automatically regulate speed to 0.07% wow and flutter.

How often should I use the 3-in-1 stylus and record cleaning kit on the diamond tip and vinyl?

Brush the stylus with the dedicated cleaner before every session and deep-clean records with the solution and brush whenever surface noise appears; regular cleaning preserves the 5.5 mV output and extends diamond life.
