Cambridge Audio Alva TT v2
Hi-fi turntables · 2021–present In production
$1,499 US reference price
A rare thing: a direct-drive audiophile deck with aptX HD Bluetooth built in, plus a moving-coil phono stage. Streams high-quality vinyl wirelessly without compromising the wired path.
One of very few genuinely high-fidelity turntables with Bluetooth.
Checked against the manufacturer’s site: 2026-07
Good to know
- Has a built-in phono stage, so it can feed a normal line input on an amplifier or powered speakers without a separate phono box.
- Can transmit over Bluetooth as well as a wired output. A wired connection avoids Bluetooth codec compression.
