I just bought a stock Cayin CD player. Im very satisfied with it but I would like to hear from other owners. How big is the difference with the modified version. Is it really worth it? I upgraded the EH 6922 to Telefunken and the mids and high improved.

Congratulation Sir! I think Hyperaudio (Rene) can answer that! From what i hear more refine & more kick on the lower frequency.

bro, congrats...was able to hear the modified, auricapped, rivoed version...considering that stock tubes were still used, ang galing ng tunog...that's a good CDP, like the jolida jd-100...God bless!

Sir Levi,

Was able to audition the Cayin paired with its monoblock and Duntonic amp Galing!! but not sure kung stock or mod na si Master Hyper.

Sir Levi,

Glad that you like the Cayin CDT-15a.

Try 6H23 tube, great replacement for 6922. I think sir Rene has this.

Cheers

Thanks. I will ask Rene.

odyopayl · « **Reply #6 on:** Sep 28, 2004 at 10:31 AM »

Sir Levi any difference compared with Jolida? Cayin is using tube as CD Buffer (same as Consonance reference CD) it is not really pure tube Cd player, Cayin is not using OPamp but instead Tubes (Pls. correct me if i'm wrong). Any significant difference? Just curious!

levi · « **Reply #7 on:** Sep 28, 2004 at 10:13 PM »

I have not tried auditioning the Jolida so I cant give any comparison. Maybe Rene can give you a better explanation, Im not too familiar with the Cayin design.

Superman · « **Reply #8 on:** Sep 28, 2004 at 10:50 PM »

fyi, jolida doesn't use an opamp as well...i believe most tube cd players nowadays do not use opamps...thanks!

i auditioned this one . Definitely beats lower priced/model tubed cd player. Improvement in detail, lambing, sounstaging is worth the extra money. Nadagdagan pa ng "taba" ang tunog. Hay, pag mas mahal mas maganda talaga!

Mga brods,

Any more reviews for this Cayin CDP? Im in the hunt for a tube CDP kasi and this Cayin is in my list.

Thanks in advance

iceman90a · « **Reply #12 on:** Dec 08, 2004 at 07:07 PM »

i had a chance to listen to this cd player at hyperaudio's place earlier today... its very good. the blue mood light can be turned off via remote - and the display dimmed one step further

definitely a must listen if you're in the market

mk · « **Reply #13 on:** Dec 09, 2004 at 11:38 AM »

Thanks iceman,

I heard the advantage of this Cayin is that you can tube roll unlike consonance

correct me if im wrong

For its price range I think its very good.

Anyone else tried this CDP?

tube rolling can be an advantage and a disadvantage as well...

advantage - different flavors
disadvantage - "what if..., what if... what if..."

sa Consonance - walang what if yun na yun wala nang hassle

Your right, kaya lng X2 price nun

That's the versatility of this CD player, you have options.

Tube rolling is your option, if your not confident on tube rolling, please dont! you might damaged your equipment

Thanks iceman90a,

Talagang d ako mapakali eh

Everytime na makita ko un Cayin CDP sa system ko, parang may mali sa tingin ko kaya ayun, after 3 days palit na

Theirs nothing wrong w/ Cayin, actually some tube roll & auricaps solve narin kaya lng d talaga bagay "look wise" sa system ko & un na audition ko na C_N_O_A_C_ eh un stock pa? Nakuha ko un tweak version kaya hay, milya milya.

Anyway right now im very happy & panatag na loob ko

this is the last missing piece in my set up & im glad tapos na

wala ng upgrade parang awa nyo na hehehehe

Naku sorry OT na tayo

Cayin is very good value for money, I understand out of stock na biruin mo un, ganun kaganda

look wise siguro nga parang meron kulang sir, kasi very simple ang design ng cayin both on CDT-17A and CDT-15A, but I would suggest to AB the Consonance with the CDT-17A.

Iceman,

I had mine upgraded. Its not yet with me but I hope its really worth it.

levi · « **Reply #24 on:** Mar 14, 2005 at 01:13 AM »

I got my CD player and all I can say is "Ang Ganda na talaga tumunog". I need to breakin it further that means it will improve some more.
