Mofi StudioDeck Foundation Turntable

OVERVIEW

It’s only natural to use the word “Studio” in the name of one of Mofi’s turntables, as doing so brings together MoFi’s software and hardware sides. And while it is their entry-level offering, StudioDeck produces high-caliber sound at a value price. Designed in collaboration with some of the world's finest audio designers, StudioDeck features an incredible amount of ingenuity and technology usually reserved for much more expensive products.

STUDIO TONEARM

Custom developed and manufactured in the USA, this 10-inch straight aluminum gimbaled bearing tonearm delivers the ideal balanced of rigidity and low tracking error, so all you hear is what is in the grooves. Tweak to your heart's delight with provisions for adjustable tracking force, VTA, azimuth, and anti-skate.

ISOLATED AC SYNCHRONOUS MOTOR

Our 300 RPM stepped-pulley AC motor provides excellent speed stability for pitch accuracy and rhythmic drive. The Delrin® pulley has two positions for 33 1/3 and 45 RPM speed selection. Motor vibrations are kept away from the platter and stylus by using advanced dampening materials that decouple the motor from the rest of the turntable.

CONSTRAINED LAYER DAMPENING

StudioDeck features an aluminum plate carefully bonded to an MDF body to add mass and eliminate tonal coloration, maintaining the true sound found on the record.

METICULOUS DESIGN AND EVALUATION

Advanced technology, user-friendly features, and unflappable design elements ensure phenomenal playback—ultimately bringing the sound of Mobile Fidelity’s famous studio into your home.

3/4-INCH DELRIN® PLATTER

Delrin® is a next-generation polymer developed by Dupont. In the world of audio, Delrin's® highly crystalline structure presents a wonderful impedance match to vinyl records, effectively grounding unwanted noise and keeping it away from the stylus.

STEEL AND TEFLON INVERTED BEARING

Mofi’s steel inverted bearing system is designed for smooth, quiet rotational stability. The extremely low tolerance combination of steel, bronze, and teflon—found in much more expensive turntables—will provide you many years of high-performance playback.

ULTRA LOW NOISE ISOLATION FEET

EFFECTIVE VIBRATION CONTROL AND NOISE REDUCTION FOR ANY AUDIO COMPONENT

Developed in coordination with the acoustic experts at Harmonic Resolution Systems, Mobile Fidelity Ultra Low Noise Feet provide substantial vibration control and noise reduction for any component under which they are placed. Featuring an outer housing comprised of milled aluminum, the 1.578-inch-tall feet dramatically lower the noise floor across the entire audio band while doing no harm in the frequency and phase domain, allowing you to hear more detail, nuance, texture, tone, focus, and clarity from all your music.

IDEAL FOR TURNTABLES, DACS, AMPLIFIERS, SOURCE GEAR, BOOKSHELF SPEAKERS, AND MORE

All you need to do to experience the benefits is place the component on top of the feet and use the provided level to check that everything is balanced. Then, sit back and listen. You will notice less hardness, dryness, brightness, and much more of what you should be experiencing. Ultra Low Noise Feet work with turntables, DACs, preamplifiers, CD players, power supplies, bookshelf speakers, and more.
