Question for Mofi Ultradeck owners


Hi, I’m doing some research on possibly upgrading my turntable. One of the tables that I might be interested in is the Mofi Ultradeck. It seems to have a lot of good reviews out there on this table.

My question is mainly about the dimension of the table. On their website, it shows the dimension as:

19.69" x 5.375" x 14.25"

but it doesn’t say if it’s measured with the dust cover on or not. I sent mofi electronics support an email but never heard back. I’m particularly interested in the height measurement, because I have strict maximum requirement of 6.5 inches. My turntable sits on a cabinet with the TV mounted on the wall behind it. Therefore it can’t be too tall, otherwise it will block the TV.

if you own one of these Mofi Ultradeck, would you mind giving me the dimension with the dust cover on?  Would also appreciate it if you can share your experience with this deck.   I'm planning to get it with the master tracker cartridge if I do decide on it.

Thanks very much in advance.

I’d be wary of the t/s nonresponse.

What kind of seperation is expected of the mstr trkr?

Did you see this on Steve Hoffman?
The reason people aren't beating down the doors to buy the MOFI cartridges is that they are basically rebodied cartridges manufactured by Audio Technica. AT offers a lot of cartridges under their own brand for less money and high performance.

If it were me I would skip the MOFI carts unless you are getting some kind of substantial package discount.


I bought the Mofi Studiodeck.  The stated height is with the dust cover on.  The cover does not add any to the depth or width.  I don’t think I would trust the hinges.  It is either on or off, but I don’t have room above it to raise the dust cover all the way up anyway.  I got mine without a cartridge, and put a soundsmith SMMC 1 from another table on it.  It is quieter with surface noise than I would have thought possible with my noisier old used records, and new vinyl is dead silent.  I had to be creative to get the anti-skate right because my B&O soundsmith cartridge is so light.  It seemed like the best in the Studiodeck price range because alignment etc. is fully adjustable.
After rereading your post, if you don’t have to jack any of the legs up to level the table, or should have enough room to lift the back hinges out of their slots, but clearing the back of the tone arm could be a issue.   Think you need at least 8 inches to stresslessly get the back side of the dust cover over the counter weight.
Thanks.  Actually Mofi Support had gotten back to me and let me know that the height of the Ultradeck is 6 inches tall with the dust cover.  So it will work for me.

I'm also considering Rega P6 or P8, EAT C Major, and maybe Clearaudio Concept.   Feel free to share your experience with any of these turntables if you own one.

Thanks very much.
