Dimensions and weight:
Center StageUltra TT is 2” in diameter with a height adjustment between 1.5” and 1.75″ (50.8mm x 41mm to 45mm). +/- 5 microns. Weight: 7 ounces / 200 grams. There is no weight limit. Adapters are available.
A set of 4 Center StageUltra TT footers has over 30 contact points of differing diameter directly touching the bottom of the turntable. This is vastly more complex than the 4 contact points found on a set of 4 Center Stage2M footers.
Calculated to 1/10,000 of an inch over the surface area of the foot, these damping contact points transfer unwanted resonance out of the table without affecting its engineering qualities. The table, the arm and the cartridge retain their characteristics, the noise floor drops away to nearly nothing and the music leaps to life. In most cases the transformation starts immediately and is often breathtaking to experience.
The benefits of the height-adjustable Center StageUltra TT footer can transfer to electronic components too.
Critical Mass Systems is proud to announce the launch of the Center StageUltra TD footer made for tape decks. You know that tape decks are motorized devices that function using constantly turning spindles powered by internal motors whose vibrations cause tape decks to be in a state of elevated internal resonance. Transferring mechanical energy out of the resonating enclosure without affecting the performance of the tape deck playback mechanisms was accomplished by building upon what we learned from executing the height-adjustable Center StageUltra TT footers for turntables. We eliminated the height-adjustment features and recalibrated the damping materials to account for the reduced mass of the foot.
Make no mistake, the Center StageUltra TD foot is just as finely tuned as its bigger brother. It delivers clearly audible excellence under tape decks with the same 30+ damping touch points of varying dimension built in.
Dimensions and weight:
Center StageUltra TD is 2” in diameter with a height of just over 1” (50.8mm x 27mm). +/- 5 microns. Weight: 5.3 ounces / 150 grams. There is no weight limit. Adapters are available.

What to Expect
We named these two footers “Ultra” for a reason. In both, the damping “sweet spot” achieved using 30+ touch points is so finely tuned, so accurate, so perfect for the weight, dimension and materials used to fabricate the foot that placing 1 set of either under your front end component is, well, amazing.
Amazing means an unexpected expansion of the soundstage in width, height, depth and image definition. Expect improvements in vocal expression and realism, and instrumental timber, separation and weight. Expect to hear new musical details previously obscured by an elevated noise floor. Expect greatly improved front-to-back layering and image stability. The bottom line: Expect your system to bring you closer to the original real event as it was originally recorded.
