Frequently Asked Questions - Alva TT v2 CAMBRIDGE
How do I connect the Alva TT v2 to Bluetooth speakers?
Turn on your Bluetooth speaker, set it to pairing mode, then press the pairing button on the turntable. The Alva TT v2 will search and connect automatically. Once paired, play a record and the sound will be transmitted wirelessly via aptX HD.
Can I use the built-in phono stage with an amplifier that has a phono input?
Yes, but you should switch the phono stage off if your amplifier's built-in phono stage is of higher quality. If leaving the built-in stage active, connect to a line level input (AUX/CD) instead of the turntable input to avoid double amplification.
How do I change the speed from 33 to 45 RPM?
The Alva TT v2 has an electronic speed selector on the front panel. Simply press the speed button to toggle between 33 1/3 and 45 RPM. The selected speed is indicated by an LED.
What cartridge is fitted and how do I replace the stylus?
The turntable comes with a pre-mounted moving magnet cartridge. To replace the stylus, carefully pull the old stylus forward and out. Insert the new stylus until it clicks into place. For best results, use a replacement stylus from the same manufacturer.
Does the turntable have automatic stop at the end of a record?
Yes, the Alva TT v2 features auto-stop. At the end of the record, the platter will stop rotating. Lift the tonearm manually to return it to the rest.
How do I maintain the turntable?
Keep the platter and stylus clean. Use a carbon-fibre brush to remove dust from the stylus before each play. Wipe the plinth with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using solvents or abrasive cleaners.
What is aptX HD and why is it important?
aptX HD is a Bluetooth codec that supports high-resolution audio up to 24-bit/48kHz. It ensures that the sound quality of your vinyl is preserved when streaming wirelessly to compatible speakers or headphones.
Can I connect the turntable to a device without aptX HD?
Yes, the Alva TT v2 is backward compatible with older Bluetooth versions. It will automatically fall back to standard aptX or SBC codec, depending on the receiver's capabilities.
What is the correct grounding procedure?
The turntable is equipped with an internal grounding circuit. When using the RCA output, no external ground wire is needed. Make sure all connections are secure and the amplifier is properly earthed.
Is the turntable suitable for all types of records?
The Alva TT v2 is designed for LP (33 RPM) and single (45 RPM) records. It supports standard 12-inch and 7-inch discs. It is not suitable for 78 RPM records.
