Analogue Audio Connections
Line Level Connection
- Switch the 'output level switch' to 'line'.
- Using high-quality RCA interconnects, connect the audio output of the Alva TT V2 to a line-level input on your amplifier.
Note: Do not connect to an external phono-stage, or phono-level input with the turntable set to 'line'.
Phono Connection
- Switch the 'output level switch' to 'phono'.
- Connect a ground lead to the ground connection screw on the Alva TT V2, and the equipment that it is being connected to.
- Using high-quality RCA interconnects, connect the audio output of the Alva TT V2 to the phono input of your external phono-stage, or amplifier.
Note: Do not connect to a line-level input with the turntable set to output at phono-level.
Note: While the Alva MC uses a moving coil construction, its higher output and loading specifications are more closely matched to that of a moving magnet cartridge. Due to this, your external phono-stage, or phono input on your amplifier MUST be suitable for use with moving magnet (MM) cartridges.
Bluetooth Connection
Pairing:
