Practical differences
Highlighted cells show a lower reference price, support for more listed speeds, or the presence of a convenience feature. They are not an overall score.
Both are belt-drive, so that part of the experience should feel similar on either deck: a motor that's mechanically isolated from the platter by an elastic belt, which is the usual route to a quieter noise floor — the default choice across most of hi-fi.
The rest of the recorded specifications line up closely, so this database does not establish an overall winner.
Bottom line: EAT C-Major and Mobile Fidelity UltraDeck are close in the recorded fields, and this specification comparison does not establish an overall winner.
