MoFi Electronics PrecisionDeck Fender Limited Edition

Overview

The MoFi Electronics PrecisionDeck Fender Limited Edition is a belt-drive turntable that pairs MoFi's PrecisionDeck engineering with special Fender American Vintage styling and finish. Developed within the MoFi turntable range that grew out of the collaboration with Allen Perkins, it uses an isolated AC synchronous motor driven by an outboard speed controller to keep motor vibration away from the plinth and the record. It plays both 33 and 45 RPM and rides on a substantial Delrin platter that combines mass and self-damping to help resist unwanted resonance.

At the heart of the deck is a 10 inch gimbal-bearing tonearm with an 18mm overhang and a 22.8 degree offset angle, geometry chosen for accurate tracking across the record. The arm accepts standard half inch mount cartridges, so you are free to fit the cartridge that suits your taste and phono stage. This edition ships without a pre-mounted cartridge, which lets you choose the pickup and dial in the setup for your system.

In the MoFi range the PrecisionDeck sits above the UltraDeck and below the flagship MasterDeck, making the Fender Limited Edition a distinctive statement piece for collectors and Fender enthusiasts who want a serious analog front end with unmistakable character. It is aimed at the listener who values engineering substance and wants a turntable that stands out visually as much as it performs.

How the PrecisionDeck Fender Compares

MoFi PrecisionDeck Fender vs MoFi MasterDeck

The MasterDeck is the reference model at the top of the MoFi turntable range and offers more refinement and isolation for the listener chasing the ultimate MoFi analog front end. The PrecisionDeck Fender Limited Edition sits just below it and adds a distinctive Fender American Vintage identity. Choose the MasterDeck for outright range-topping engineering, or the Fender edition when standout styling and PrecisionDeck performance are the goal. See the MoFi MasterDeck.

MoFi PrecisionDeck Fender vs MoFi UltraDeck

The UltraDeck is the step below the PrecisionDeck and remains an excellent all-around belt-drive turntable. The PrecisionDeck Fender Limited Edition moves up the range with its 10 inch gimbal arm and special Fender finish. Pick the UltraDeck for a more accessible entry into MoFi analog, or the Fender edition for a higher-tier deck with collectible styling. See the MoFi UltraDeck.

MoFi PrecisionDeck Fender vs Thorens TD 1500

The Thorens TD 1500 uses a sub-chassis belt-drive approach that reflects Thorens' long analog heritage and a classic clean aesthetic. The MoFi PrecisionDeck Fender Limited Edition takes a mass-loaded route with a Delrin platter, outboard speed controller and bold Fender styling. Consider the Thorens for its traditional sub-chassis character, or the MoFi for its distinctive design and range position. See the Thorens TD 1500.

Recommended Cartridge, Phono Stage and Amplifier

This deck ships without a cartridge and needs phono equalization plus amplification and speakers, so here is a complete MoFi-centered system to finish it.

• MoFi MasterTracker MM Cartridge MoFi's top moving magnet cartridge drops straight onto the half inch mount and pairs naturally with the PrecisionDeck arm for a cohesive MoFi front end.
• MoFi MasterPhono Phonostage The reference MoFi phono stage provides the gain and extensive adjustable loading a turntable needs, letting you fine-tune the MasterTracker for the best performance.
• MoFi UltraPhono Pro Phono Preamp A single-input balanced MM and MC phono stage that is an ideal streamlined alternative when you want MoFi phono equalization without the full MasterPhono feature set.
• Audiolab 7000A Integrated Amplifier MoFi does not make amplifiers, so this integrated provides the power to drive your speakers and complete the system around the turntable.
• MoFi SourcePoint 8 Bookshelf Speakers Andrew Jones' concentric point-source design delivers wide, even dispersion and keeps the whole system within the MoFi family; remember they are passive and need the amplifier above.
