Cayin - A-50T MKII Integrated Amplifier

Cayin A-50T MKII Integrated Amplifier 

 

This beautifully crafted hand made amp is designed to deliver the wonderful sound of the original classic Marantz 8B amp with features and build quality that would not have been dreamed of in the 1960's or 1970's. Although many 'improvements' have happened to HiFi equipment, many purists still believe that Simple is Better.

 

"The Cayin A-50T is the best low-price amp I have ever heard, and it rivals some of the best amps in any price range." - Harry Weisfeld, owner of VPI Industries

 

Classic, simple design of amplifiers, with the improvement that better capacitors and better connectors, and even creature comforts like a Remote Control, will reproduce your music in an easier to listen to, less fatiguing way.

 

The Cayin Audio A-50T MKII uses four EL-34 Output Tubes for Class AB1 Push Pull Amplification, but is upgradable to KT-88 Tubes (not included) by a switch on the bottom of the unit. The craftsmanship is first rate, inside and outside. The torodial power transformer and EI output transformers are specially designed and manufactured for the Cayin A-50T MKII.

 

Cayin's unique Soft-start circuit helps extend tube life (typically 3000 hours!). The removable cage snaps on and off anytime. Cover on has a clean classic look, cover off... Keep On Glowin'.

 

Once the cover is off the Bias adjustment controls and test points are easily accessible and adjustable from the top of the Chassis. The amp is very stable and typically won't need a bias adjustment for about 1000 hours.
