CS-88A

THE SUCCESSOR TO THE POPULAR A-88TMK2

The CS-88a is the next step up in the series from the small all-rounder CS-55a. On the design, the front panel has been made slightly wider to 42 cm, making it the ideal partner with Cayin’s CS-100CD CD player (see it here).
The turntable’s popularity is not overlooked. A phono input for the turntable has been integrated here, which supports MM pickups. Connecting your turntable doesn’t get any easier.
In addition, a larger power supply has been added to provide more power and stability. In particular, the new output transformers ensure greater and finer detail in the sound image.
Like its little brother CS-55a, a VU meter is integrated on the top plate for bias adjustment. This helps, over time, to always ensure the right performance.
