Product Description

Experience unparalleled vinyl music with the Fluance Reference High Fidelity Turntable

PureAnalog

Red Cartridge

Precision Playback with Motor Isolation and Speed Control

Pure Analog Performance

The Reference turntable continues our mission to deliver a warm, uncompressed listening experience that commands your attention, allowing you to get lost in the music.

Ortofon 2M Red Cartridge for an Open, Dynamic and Warm Sound

Exceptional musical accuracy from the award-winning diamond tipped elliptical 2M Red cartridge that provides an increased output of 5.5mV. Incorporating Ortofon’s split pole pins allowing the moving magnet cartridge to have a flat frequency response for a pure sound without any coloration.

Precision Playback with Motor Isolation and Speed Control

The precision servo-controlled belt drive motor with speed regulating optical sensor, continuously measures and adjusts variances in linear velocity and acceleration within a few hundredths of a percent at a wow and flutter of 0.07%. The decoupling of the drive from the plinth suppresses motor vibrations and noise from reaching the stylus. This maintains accurate speed and significantly reduces rumble so your records sound perfect at every play

Solid Wood

Signal Clarity

Passion for Great audio

Wood Plinth for Superior Resistance to Vibrations

The mass-loaded multi-layered MDF wood chassis inhibits the transfer of unwanted resonance through the system. The 3 rubber, spike-type height-adjustable isolation feet minimize surface contact under the turntable resulting in immunity to environmental vibrations, allowing for greater low frequency signal pickup and improved imaging.

Spectacular Signal Clarity

Caress your records with the balanced S-shaped tonearm for accurate tracking of the record groove with no electronics in the signal path from the stylus tip to the gold-plated RCA outputs for a pure, exceptionally detailed sound.

A Passion for Great Audio

Fluance has successfully revolutionized home audio. Utilizing only superior components and expert audio engineering, the Fluance Record Players are a testament to the performance that can be achieved when a passion for music takes center stage. The perfect complement to any audiophile’s lifestyle, you’ll be enjoying live performances in your home for years to come.
