Cayin presents the C9ii, a high-quality mobile headphone amplifier that combines sound quality and unusual technology. At its heart is the innovative Nutube 6P1 tube from Korg, which provides the classic warm tube sound. Now in its fifth generation, this tube offers a depth of sound that makes music a particularly emotional experience. A special feature of the Cayin C9ii is the adjustable anode voltage, which can be switched between a softer sound and a dynamic, detailed reproduction – ideal for users who prefer different headphones and music genres.
The fully balanced architecture reduces distortion and offers high channel separation, which raises the sonic precision of the C9ii to a new level. The sound characteristics can be further individualized in various modes such as Class A/AB, NFB/LFB and Hyper. The C9ii operates directly from powerful, integrated 3,400 mAh batteries and does not require DC/DC conversions – a solution that is particularly ideal in analog circuits and extends battery life.
Its robust housing made of graphene and aluminum guarantees effective heat dissipation and protects the components from overheating, even during prolonged use.
Introductory price until December
The Cayin C9ii is now available for 2,498 euros and is aimed at discerning audiophiles who place the highest value on mobile listening pleasure.
