Fluance RT81 (2017)

This belt-drive turntable keeps connection simple with a single pair of gold-plated RCA outputs and a built-in switchable phono preamp, so it plugs straight into either a phono input or a regular line/aux input on powered speakers or a receiver. When the internal preamp is engaged, the separate ground wire isn't needed; with the preamp bypassed for an external phono stage, you connect the ground to cut hum. There are no USB or Bluetooth outputs on this model. It runs from an external AC power adapter.

Belt-drive turntable with gold-plated RCA output, switchable built-in phono preamp and a grounding terminal; no USB or Bluetooth.

Notes & Compatibility

Single gold-plated RCA stereo output with a switchable internal Texas Instruments phono preamp (PHONO/LINE). A grounding terminal is present (used when bypassing the internal preamp) but is not a cable connector — noted in prose. Ships with an external AC power adapter (proprietary DC barrel), which is not modeled per the cable-only scope. No USB or Bluetooth.
