Cayin CS-55A (EL34/KT88)


The CS-55A is the most recent advancement in tube amplifier technology created by Cayin. This state-of-the-art machine boasts forty watts per channel by using 4 KT88 tubes in Class AB ultra-linear push pull amplification. The CS-55A consists of four pairs of input: one Phono, a USB port, and two line inputs giving a wide range of options for any listener.
The CS-55A comprises of a fully anodized aluminum front, a vented chassis with a gorgeous finish, the finest hand-made point-to-point wiring, and a soft-start circuit to enhance the life of the toroidal power transformer and output transformers. Combined with audio grade capacitors, carbon film resistors, and ceramic tube sockets, this is one amplifier every audiophile should have in his/her collection. Speaker output impedance can be swapped between 4 ohms and 8 ohms. Similarly to the A-88T, the CS-55A comes with a handy remote control.
Transform your music system! Extraordinary value and performance best describes the Cayin Audio CS55A Integrated amplifier. As the centre piece of any system, the unit is at home with both analogue or digital formats. CS-55A includes a built in MM phono section to accommodate turntables and a built-in high resolution DAC for use with computers. Via the 2.0 USB input, the DAC is capable of covering digital audio signals up to 32bit | 384kHz. This combination of a high end DAC and tubes makes for a rich and detailed soundstage.
The output stage can be switched between Triode and Ultra Linear mode and either KT88 or EL34 tubes can be used for the maximum amount of flexibility. A headphone jack on the front completes the unit and makes this one of the most versatile and compelling products on the market for 2016.
  • Dual Mode Operation: The CS-55A allows users to switch between Triode and Ultralinear modes, offering flexibility in sound characteristics. Triode mode provides a warmer, more linear sound, while Ultralinear mode delivers greater power and dynamic range.

  • Tube Rolling Capability: Compatible with both EL34 and KT88 tubes, this amplifier allows users to customize their sound signature by switching between these tube types.

  • High-Quality Components: Equipped with high-grade TUNG-SOL and Electro-Harmonix tubes, the CS-55A ensures reliable performance and superior sound quality.

  • Multiple Inputs and Outputs: Features a variety of input options including Line 1, Line 2, Line 3, and Pre-In, making it versatile for different audio setups. It also includes speaker outputs for 4Ω and 8Ω impedance.

  • Classic Design: The amplifier's elegant design with a choice of silver or black finish, along with a protective cage, blends seamlessly with any home audio setup.

  • Built-In Phono Stage: Includes a built-in MM phono stage, allowing vinyl enthusiasts to connect their turntables directly to the amplifier without needing an external phono preamp.

  • Remote Control: Comes with a remote control for added convenience, allowing users to adjust volume and switch inputs from a distance.

  • High Signal-to-Noise Ratio: With a signal-to-noise ratio of 92dB, the CS-55A delivers clear and detailed sound with minimal background noise.
