An Extreme Pursuit of the Purest Vinyl Sound Reproduction
The word "ultra" is synonymous with Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab's philosophy. It represents the company’s extreme pursuit of the highest level of reproduction of vinyl-recorded sound – beyond the status quo – to provide music lovers with the experience of hearing the Original Master Recording in their home. Whether you're enjoying a standard LP or a Mobile Fidelity UltraDisc One-Step limited-edition record, UltraDeck will deliver faithful playback of what's in the grooves.
10" Ultra Tonearm
Custom-developed and manufactured in the USA, the 10" Ultra tonearm uses smooth, high-quality ball bearings for low friction in the vertical and horizontal plane, so that all you hear is what is in the grooves. Cardas Audio wiring maintains signal purity from the head shell leads all the way through to the high-quality, gold-plated RCA connectors.
Isolated AC Synchronous Motor
MoFi’s 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 the use of advanced dampening materials that decouple the motor from the rest of the turntable.
Anti-Vibration Feet and High-Mass Body
Any vibration of the stylus that is not created by the grooves in the record is a distortion that will mask musical detail. Developed in conjunction with the engineering team at Harmonic Resolution Systems, the world leader in vibration isolation for audio equipment, the included MoFi anti-vibration feet isolate your turntable from bad vibrations.
Additionally, the UltraDeck features three aluminum plates carefully bonded to an MDF body to add mass and eliminate tonal coloration, maintaining the true sound found on the record.
1.3"-Thick Delrin Platter
The UltraDeck features a massive 1.3-"-thick Delrin platter. The increased mass creates blacker sonic backgrounds and a lower noise floor. 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.
Hardened-Steel Inverted Bearing
The hardened-steel inverted bearing system is designed for smooth, quiet rotational stability. The extremely low tolerance combination of steel, bronze, and sapphire – typically found in much more expensive turntables – will provide you many years of high-performance playback.
Choice of Three Optional Cartridges
You can order the UltraDeck without a phono cartridge, using one of your own. You can also order it with one of three superb MoFi cartridges.
The UltraTracker dual magnet MM cartridge surrounds its V-Twin motor with a damped billet aluminum body to provide superior bass definition and slam. The upgraded nude elliptical stylus has low tip mass for superior tracking and extraction of fine details.
The MasterTracker dual magnet MM cartridge features pure Ohno continuous-cast copper coils and a Micro Linear diamond stylus. The result is surgical precision, pinpoint accuracy, and a purist-based sonic picture of what was cut in the studio.
Uniquely voiced by lead MoFi Electronics engineer Allen Perkins, the UltraGold MC moving coil cartridge offers exceptionally wide frequency response, clear high-frequency transients, stunning dynamics, and incredibly rich detail.
