This exquisite tube phono stage is the product of over 25 years of audio design expertise from Cayin, tailored to connect with high-performance MM and MC pickups to deliver an immersive, high-fidelity sonic experience. Furnished with a dual phono input mechanism, it seamlessly accommodates multiple-arm turntables or two different turntables, each powered by an MM or MC system.

The distinctive feature of the CS-6PH is its able team of tubes – functions of MC gain, MM gain with near-perfect RIAA equalization, output stage and voltage rectification are divided between four different types of specialized tubes, creating a symphony of sounds. The palpable power of the CS-6PH can be custom adjusted, thanks to a three-position gain switch on the front panel. Flexible to a variety of cartridge types, the amp carries the capacity to enhance its gain from 40 decibels to an astounding 65 decibels. This device is not merely a conduit for pure sound but an homage to painstaking precision, ensuring optimal impedance and capacitance adjustments for your pickups.

The well-envisioned design features a low-pass filter to prevent any disruptions arising from low frequencies due to record warpage. Packed with high-quality capacitors, carbon film resistors, a large EI transformer for power supply and top-grade relays, the Cayin CS-6PH offers a harmonious blend between classic technique and modern functionality. The device promises easy handling with egg-shell smooth switches and memorable settings. Optimum functionality is ensured with a clever soft-start circuit and an elegant tube cover for a splendid visual appeal.
