High-Quality Phono Preamplifier For Vinyl Lovers!
The Cambridge Audio Alva Duo is a dedicated phono preamplifier for Moving Magnet (MM) and Moving Coil (MC) cartridges and delivers outstanding sound quality for your records — both through your hi-fi system and directly via headphones.
With a sophisticated circuit design, the Alva Duo teases out even the finest details from vinyl and ensures a precise, natural reproduction of your favorite records. Its state-of-the-art RIAA equalizer works with the highest accuracy so your music is reproduced as it was recorded.
Excellent Gain And Noise Suppression
The phono preamplifier offers approximately 39 dB gain in MM mode and approximately 60 dB in MC mode, achieving very high signal-to-noise ratios (> 90 dB MM / > 70 dB MC) and a low distortion factor, which enables an extremely clean, dynamic sound. The input impedance is optimally matched to MM and MC cartridges, ensuring ideal signal transfer.:contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}
