Product details

Cambridge Audio Alva Duo Moving Coil & Moving Magnet Phono Preamp


Product Description

A dual-personality phono stage with fully separate MM (39dB) and MC (60dB) gain stages, so listeners running either cartridge type — or planning to upgrade — get a signal path sized for it rather than a generic catch-all.

A front-mounted 6.35mm headphone jack with its own volume control turns it into a self-contained vinyl listening station, and an automatic standby mode keeps idle draw under 1W.

Specifications

  • Gain @ 1kHz: MM 39dB / MC 60dB
  • Connectivity: gold-plated RCA, ground post, front headphone output
  • SNR: MM >90dB / MC >70dB; Subsonic filter included
  • Weight: 0.95kg
