Cayin HA-6A Brings Music to Life in Any Space

Transformer Coupled, Balanced Vacuum Tube Headphone Amplifier
Features 4-Pin, 4.4mm, and 6.3mm Headphones Outputs
Easy tube rolling and selectable output impedance for endless tonal options

Dual Operation Mode: Triode and Ultralinear

Triode mode offers a smooth sound with rich harmonics and lush, holographic imaging. Ultralinear Mode improves the dynamics and punch, with a clean authorative sound and enhanced extensive on both ends of the frequency spectrum.

Just Roll With It

HA-6A is built for tube rolling. The included EHX EL34 were hand selected by Cayin's engineers, but you can easily change the sound with different types of tubes to fully explore your tonal options. Combine easy tube rolling with selectable impedance for headphones ranging from 8-600 ohms, and the tonal options are endless.

Key Features

Impedance Matched Headphone Output: choose from Low, Medium, or High impedance to match your headphones

Optimized Headphone Outputs: the 4-pin XLR will provide the maximum power while the 4.4mm output allows for compatibility with high-end IEMs and more sensitive options.

60 second start up delay circuit: Protects your tubes and minimizes noise related to the warm up cycle of the amplifier

Incredible Craftsmanship and In-house design

The entire circuit is hand wired using point to point wiring, rather than a circuit board. Point to point, shortens the signal path and improves the efficiency and conductivity. Cayin also uses power transformers designed and wound in house, to ensure that the shielding and output is up to their standards. HA-6A's power transformers are a matched pair for further power and efficiency in the design.

Cayin HA-6A

I really like the Cayin HA-6A. It is an incredibly high-quality and beautiful thing. It gives different sound characters by changing the lamps and switches on the front panel. It is the best on the market.

Cayin HA-6A headphone amp

The HA-6A is leaps and bounds better than my previous headphone amp. I'm still in the burn-in phase but so far, this amp is very resolving, very detailed and imaging is great.

Instrument separation is also great. It's very easy to distinguish each instrument and there is no blurring/merging of sound coming from each instrument in the output and the timbre, for each instrument, is very accurate. One thing to note at this stage is soundstage depth could use improvement but with headphones that can be very difficult to attain.

It's a tube rolling paradise and difficult, at this point (still in burn-in), but I can't wait for time in each to day to go through my library to listen to how much better this amp is compared to my previous, only a several hundred dollar, tube hybrid amp.

The team at Bloom were a joy to work with and answered every question I had regarding this amp.

Thanks, again, Bloom Audio for all of your assistance in helping me decide which amp best fits my tastes and budget. Well done and I look forward to working with you again!
