Fluance RT85 turntable with Ortofon 2M Blue
The Fluance RT85WIB40 is a belt-drive turntable fitted with an Ortofon 2M Blue nude elliptical cartridge and supplied with a dedicated anti-vibration isolation base. It is built for vinyl enthusiasts who want high-resolution analogue playback with minimal mechanical noise.
Ortofon 2M Blue elliptical cartridge
The nude elliptical stylus of the Ortofon 2M Blue delivers improved linearity, higher channel separation and reduced distortion. This cartridge choice defines the detail retrieval and tonal balance of the system.
High-mass acrylic platter
A 10.5 lb MDF isolation base and a high-density acrylic platter work together to damp external vibrations. Height-adjustable feet and a built-in bubble level let you level the platform so the stylus stays centred in the groove. Buyers who need a built-in phono preamp or Bluetooth connectivity should look elsewhere.

Questions about this item
What does the 10.5 lb plinth weight mean for everyday playback?
The dense MDF platform adds mass that resists external vibrations, helping the stylus stay centred in the groove for cleaner detail retrieval.
What does the acrylic platter's mass do for speed stability?
Its high density increases inertia, giving more consistent rotational speed and damping unwanted resonances that can blur the soundstage.
How large is the isolation base and will it fit my shelf?
The base measures 2.44 x 17.13 x 14.96 inches, so check your shelf depth and height against those dimensions before ordering.
