Turntables — MoFi Electronics STUDIODECK+U

The STUDIODECK+U is a belt-drive turntable from MoFi Electronics, sitting below the Fender American Vintage with a more compact chassis and a somewhat smaller platter. The STUDIODECK+U brings MoFi's considered engineering to a more accessible turntable format.

Key specs that matter

Two speeds are supported - 33 and 45rpm - via belt drive using an AC motor. The 3.88lb Delrin platter is somewhat smaller than the Fender American Vintage's 6.8lb platter. Wow and flutter spans 0.017-0.025%, matching the Fender American Vintage. Signal-to-noise is 72dB. At 500 x 137 x 362mm and 8.66kg, the STUDIODECK+U maintains a somewhat more compact turntable chassis.

Sound and use context

Expect smooth, well-controlled rotation reflecting the solid 0.017-0.025% wow-and-flutter figure, delivered here in a more accessible, more compact chassis than the Fender American Vintage.

Pairing

Buyers should confirm tonearm and cartridge compatibility directly with MoFi or an authorised dealer to complete this turntable's analogue front end.

Alternatives

MoFi's own Fender American Vintage offers a more substantial alternative with a special collaborative cosmetic treatment.
