Rather
than go for a Belt Drive system with the ALVA TT, we opted for a medium-torque
Direct Drive. Over time, the elastic used on a Belt Drive turntable can stretch
and will need to be replaced. As a result of this wear, Belt Drive turntables
traditionally have a less accurate playback speed than their Direct Drive
cousins. This isn’t a problem on the ALVA TT – it has just 0.06% Wow and
Flutter. This means a far better pitch stability – particularly during longer,
more sustained musical notes.
The Alva
TT uses a classic British-made one-piece tonearm. There are no joints, giving
it the best possible grounding for the cartridge and offering extremely low
friction.
It’s
designed to retrieve the maximum amount of sonic detail from the cartridge and
therefore your records.
Bluetooth
aptX HD liberates your record player from the hi-fi rack. With the freedom to
place Alva TT anywhere you like, your records are invited into the lime-light.
Your music can be streamed from Alva TT to any Bluetooth receiver at up to
24bit/48kHz Hi-Res, which means you’re guaranteed an authentic vinyl
experience, wherever it’s placed.
