Pure analog vinyl playback
The Fluance RT85WH is a belt-drive turntable finished in piano white, built around a high-mass MDF plinth and supplied with an Ortofon 2M Blue nude elliptical cartridge already mounted. A heavy acrylic platter adds inertia for consistent rotation, while adjustable damping feet isolate the chassis from external vibration. Gold-plated RCA outputs carry a completely passive signal path from stylus to amplifier.
Ideal for dedicated vinyl listeners.
This turntable suits listeners who want a pure analog chain with a high-resolution cartridge that tracks fine groove detail and delivers a flat, uncoloured response. The acrylic platter and precision motor target reduced wow and flutter for stable pitch. Buyers who need built-in phono pre-amplification, USB digitising, automatic cueing or wireless streaming should look at alternative designs that include those functions.
Ortofon 2M Blue cartridge defines the resolution
The supplied nude elliptical stylus is the single component that sets the detail retrieval and channel separation possible from this deck. Its tracking ability and low distortion character determine how much musical information is recovered from the groove, making the cartridge choice the decisive factor when deciding whether this turntable meets a listener’s fidelity expectations.

Questions about this item
What are the dimensions and mounting requirements for the RT85WH turntable?
The turntable weighs 16.76 lbs and features a high-mass MDF wood plinth with adjustable resonance damping feet for isolation. Ensure a stable, level surface that can support this weight and allow clearance for the dust cover hinge.
How do I correctly install the Ortofon 2M Blue cartridge and set the tracking force?
The Ortofon 2M Blue cartridge comes pre-mounted on the S-shaped tonearm. The critical step is using the counterweight to dial in the manufacturer's recommended tracking force for the nude elliptical stylus, then setting the anti-skate to match.
When and how should the Ortofon 2M Blue stylus be replaced?
The nude elliptical diamond stylus on the 2M Blue cartridge is user-replaceable. Replace it when you hear increased sibilance, tracking distortion, or visible tip wear. Order the Ortofon 2M Blue replacement stylus and slide the new assembly onto the cartridge body.
