CES 2019 sees Cambridge Audio add a classic spin to the classic turntable-- the Alva TT features aptx HD Bluetooth streaming, allowing it to stream 24-bit 48kHz audio to compatible devices.
The Alva TT is styled after the Edge hifi separate range from the British company, if with the addition of a a Bluetooth transmitter for the beaming of LP audio to compatible headphones or speakers. Designed and built in-house, it carries a direct drive design with a built-in phono stage, single piece tonearm and a high output moving coil cartridge.
The body is built out solid aluminium, and includes a dense Polyoxymethylene platter Cambridge Audio claims delivers more accurate playback speeds while reducing the effects of unwanted vibrations. A medium torque direct driver turns the platter at either 33.3 or 45rpm, and the package includes a dust cover.
The Alva TT ships from April 2019.
