Designed and engineered to the highest standards, the Cambridge Audio Alva TT V2 combines sound quality with user-friendly features like no other rival.

Blends sound and function like nothing else in its class
Just like its award-winning predecessor, the Alva TT V2 delivers the perfect synergy of sound and function. This premium turntable is also easy to install and use. Unlike some high-end decks, set-up is drama free and speed control is via electronic control (no need to manually change the belt). A built-in phonostage and Bluetooth output offer universal connectivity, letting you enjoy the top quality sound from any hi-fi, speaker system or even Bluetooth headphones.

Switchable, high quality Bluetooth aptX HD output
The original Alva TT was the world’s first turntable to offer Bluetooth aptX HD connectivity – giving you HD sound, wirelessly. Bluetooth connectivity usually means a loss in sound quality but, thanks to the Alva TT V2’s aptX HD output, wireless sound is much higher quality. Working up to 24 bit/48kHz, the Alva TT V2 delivers Hi-Res audio to beat CD – cable-free. For improved sound when not using the Bluetooth output, it’s now switchable – reducing possible interference when using a cabled connection.

Built-in, switchable phonostage
For a fully analogue experience, little beats a cabled connection. The Alva TT V2 features a switchable, built-in phonostage, so it connects to any hi-fi system with an AUX input. RCA phono outputs let you use any phono cable, allowing you to use longer or higher quality cables of your choice. If you already have a high quality phonostage, simply switch the output level at the rear.

Direct Drive for ultimate precision
Rather than using a belt drive system, the Alva TT V2 opts for high torque, Direct Drive. This offers excellent pitch stability, for precise timing and upbeat sound. A further advantage is there’s no belt to clean or replace.

Improved tonearm
The new tonearm now features a removable headshell. This makes it much easier to remove the cartridge – ideal for when you’re cleaning the deck and don’t want to risk damaging the stylus or for when upgrading to a new cartridge. With adjustable anti-skating, the rigid tonearm cleanly follows the record’s groove, giving you clear and lifelike sound.

Moving Coil cartridge for accurate detail
Another sign of this turntable’s top-class credentials is the standard fit, Alva Moving Coil cartridge. Reserved for the highest quality turntables, Moving Coil (MC) cartridges improve over regular Moving Magnet (MM) versions by offering a fixed stylus for improved accuracy. Smoother and more natural-sounding, once you’ve heard just how good a MC cartridge can sound, you won’t want to go back to MM.

Easy to set-up and practical
With the cartridge already in place and no belt to install, it’s easy to get started with the Alva TT V2. Simply dial up the correct weight and anti-skating and you’re good to go. Once installed, a practical lid and push-button speed control make the Alva TT V2 easy to live with.

Stylish good looks
Sleek, clean lines and a reassuring solidness means the Alva TT V2 exudes a sense of quality. Finished in Cambridge’s signature lunar-grey and black, the Alva TT V2’s smooth style perfectly matches other Cambridge Audio products.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Vinyl HiFi Made Simple. I bought this to pair with my new KEF LS50 Wireless II's and my KEF KC62 Subwoofer. A Bluetooth turntable is not something any so-called audiophile purist would recommend. They would tell you that you are not getting the "true" analogue sound from your turntable and vinyl records if you are using Bluetooth. They would probably say the same about my wireless speaker setup too. No, it's not analogue but, the truth is that almost all vinyl records these days are mastered digitally. Analogue music production is virtually extinct these days, so what you are getting here is a perfect hi-res digital Bluetooth transfer of the original vinyl record to your speakers. Besides, you can still use this turntable in a wired configuration if you want to, just like a regular turntable, even to the KEF speakers. All that aside, the burning question is, does this turntable sound good? Simple answer is yes. It sounds bloody fantastic but only if you pair it with a decent speaker setup that is. There's no point spending this kind of money if you're going to pair this turntable with low end, cheap speakers. Setup was super simple too, with the included scales for balancing the tonearm, and simple instructions. There are also official instruction videos on YouTube too if you feel you need them. Overall, I'm very happy with my purchase. Richer Sounds were brilliant too, with easy ordering and fast delivery.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Amazing Product! I am new to turntables but this blew me away! Amazing product and stylish design. The only reason I provided 4 out of 5 stars, is because the setup of the device wasn't that clear with the included manual.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Detailed and emotional It’s early days but I am very impressed so far. I found it easy to set up and was quickly listening to my collection; hearing details in the recordings that I hadn’t before and enjoying the emotional depth of the music.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Great product - lovely to have turntable again! I bought this on the basis that I wanted to get back into vinyl but without compromising on a modern system (I have KEF 50 Wireless II actives) and this goes great with them. Lovely to play records again, they genuinely sound different.
