A handmade tube amplifier that adds wireless music playback \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eto the portfolio, but at the same time has been designed and manufactured to the highest Cayin standards. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Jazz 80 comes in a solid design,with high-quality workmanship throughout and made from selected components.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCase and Tubes:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/en.cayin.cn\/ueditor_temp\/php\/upload\/image\/20230914\/1694669546519876.jpg\" title=\"\" alt=\"02.jpg\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe excellently crafted, deep glossy case is probably the first thing that positively strikes the observer. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis metallic dress looks good, but at the same time provides the necessary protection for the valuable electronics. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNevertheless, the attention first falls on the total of eight tubes. In the rear area, that would be four KT88 output tubes. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThey provide the power amplification. In the row in front of them are four identical looking, smaller glowing tubes. However,\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ea closer look reveals that they are two different models: Two 12AU7s sitting on the outside and the two 12AX7s placed in the middle. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhile the 12AX7s act as preamp tubes and amplify the voltage level of incoming music signals, the 12AU7s serve as phase splitters and \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003edrivers for the KT88s. In keeping with this, the developers have placed emphasis on a cage that has been painted in the same color as the cabinet. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis appears a bit more modern than known from the competition and it protects the high-quality tubes from mechanical damage. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs if all thatwere not enough, the Jazz 80 stands on four shock-absorbing feet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/en.cayin.cn\/ueditor_temp\/php\/upload\/image\/20230914\/1694669725248068.jpg\" title=\"\" alt=\"03.jpg\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/en.cayin.cn\/ueditor_temp\/php\/upload\/image\/20230914\/1694669735134888.jpg\" title=\"\" alt=\"04.jpg\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBluetooth\/LDAC\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/en.cayin.cn\/ueditor_temp\/php\/upload\/image\/20230914\/1694669999630706.jpg\" title=\"\" alt=\"05.jpg\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn addition, there is a Bluetooth module, thanks to which this tube amplifier is also able to communicate wirelessly with \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eappropriate players such as smartphone, tablet, laptop or even the TV. This turns the HiFi specialist into a modern audio center. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe connection setup is very simple: If the input source \"Bluetooth\" is selected, the small blue LED flashes. At the same time, \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ethe Cayin identifies itself as \"Cayin HD BT\" to its potential play partners. Now, a tap of the finger is all it takes to connect the \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eexternal player and Jazz 80 wirelessly. The transmission is done via LDAC codec. LDAC stands for \"Low Delay Audio Codec\" and \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eallows the wireless transfer of high-resolution audio content at a maximum transfer rate of up to 990 kbps.

Both modes each have their own sound characteristics. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith its pre-installed KT88 output tubes, the Cayin outputs 2×20 watts in Triode mode. In Ultralinear mode, \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eon the other hand, it's even a whopping 2×40 watts of power. The switchover is easily done via a small toggle switch, \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ewhich finds its place directly in front of the two 12AX7 tubes. In this context, an important, although not directly visible, \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003efeature must also be mentioned: The power supply. Even if the sales price doesn't necessarily suggest it, \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ethe Cayin developers have made full use of their resources here and given the Jazz 80 an elaborately designed power supply including a filter choke.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBias circuit\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/en.cayin.cn\/ueditor_temp\/php\/upload\/image\/20230914\/1694670226566962.jpg\" title=\"\" alt=\"07.jpg\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRight next to it, there are three more toggle switches, one on the left and two on the right. They help to control the correct bias setting. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis can be adjusted individually for each output tube via trim potentiometer. The three said levers are then used to check the changes made. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe center toggle switch turns the left VU meter into the control element for bias adjustment. The left lever (A1\/A2) controls the tubes for \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ethe left channel and the right one (A3\/A4) controls those of the right channel.

A gentle click and the lighting up of the VU meter reveals basic readiness for use. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs long as the small LED indicator in the volume control is blinking, the soft start is running. So the Cayin is warming up first. If the LED is permanently lit,\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ethe system is ready to go. The input selection can now be made either via the rotary control on the left in the front or via the input button on the high-quality\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ealuminum remote control. The Jazz 80 is similarly open when it comes to volume selection. This can be done either via the level control on the right or via infrared remote control.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMultiple Choice:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCayin offers four choices of Jazz 80.
