Headphoneus Supremus
No issues for me . I often test the 2 different headphone ports character for synergy with cans when its on.
Hi.Hi, is it possible to disconnect and change the headphones when the amplifier is turned on? Can't damage occur if I unplug the headphones during operation?
Hi a lot of the light is actually coming from decorative leds under the valves to enhance the ‘glow’. I have one led that’s completely off and other folks have mentioned faulty leds after a while.Guys, I just noticed this past few days. The tubes in my Cayin do not shine as brightly as one another. V3 and V5 appeared to be dim, there are some light, but not as bright as the other three. Is there something wrong with my amplifier or it is normal.
Thanks for the answer c3po, it will surely gives me a good night sleep.Hi a lot of the light is actually coming from decorative leds under the valves to enhance the ‘glow’. I have one led that’s completely off and other folks have mentioned faulty leds after a while.
For this decorative Led failing issue there will be no Sonic effect.

Hi.
Standard practice is just turn Volume down and change headphones over (its also Better Keeping Valve Amp for increased stability of sound).
There are only a few Amps where powering off is recommended, if using Jack connections e.g. SPL Phonitor 2.
Hope this helps.

@Andykong Thanks for your suggestion. The China Cayin representative did get back to me and let me know they are in production again and will be shipping in a few weeks, but only the export version, however it seems they would allow me to order direct from them. My local dealer cannot get it (export version) so I will have to order direct from Cayin for this model. The HA6A my dealer can still get it, so I will go through him to order. Yes, I will probably order both as I have more than one room I want to have listening in.

As it turns out my amp buying journey is not yet complete, I am also looking at the integrated models for my 2-Channel setup. I am probably going to end up with the DALI MENUET SE and will need a good amp to drive them. If you know of anyone who has paired a Cayin with those, let me know.Glad you have both sorted out. Buying two different Cayin tube amplifiers at the same time is definitely true love, we are flattered.
If we include both speaker based and headphone based amplifier, we have around 40 different amplifiers (pre, power and integrated) in our CURRENT product line. If you missed one production lot and need to wait for next round of production, it will take a while before we rotate to that model again.
John @ Cayin did mention that if we don't get a unit from this batch, the next batch for the Chinese market will be at the end of the year, so we will be placing our order this Friday so we can get one.Glad you have both sorted out.

What kind of music do you listen to?Sometimes I pair my ha1a mk2 with Yamaha 1000 + Dali mentor menuet. It sounds amazing. But if you listen hard rock genres take a look at another speakers.
