Cayin CS-100A tube integrated amplifier KT 88

Cayin CS-100A tube integrated amplifier KT 88

Description

Our muscle man: The Cayin CS-100A with a KT-88 assembly for the output stage. He brings it to 80 watts per channel in class AB ultra linear mode and to 2 x 45 watts in triode mode - a tight performance for a tube amplifier. In addition to the KT 88 power tubes, 6SN7 are used for voltage amplification, 12AU7EH for phase inversion and voltage amplification. The output tubes are controlled via a driver stage with 12BH7EH. No savings were made on the other components either. The remote controllable volume control comes from Alps, the capacitors are optimized for audio applications, the film resistors have the smallest tolerances. There is also a high-quality toroidal transformer in the power supply.
