Here’s a full profile of the Cayin 230C, which is actually a solid‑state, Class AB integrated amplifier often mistaken for tube gear.



🔍 Overview & Specs
• Type: Solid‑state (not a tube amp), Class AB
• Power Output: ≈100 W per channel into 8 Ω (≈160 W into 4 Ω) (!)
• Inputs: Multiple analog line‑level inputs (no digital or phono stage)
• Design: Sturdy, transformer‑isolated power circuitry with FET-based amplification (!) (!)

Despite the “C” suffix implying prestige, it lacks tubes—so it’s a traditional transistor amp with clean, dynamic sound.



🎧 Sound & User Feedback

On Catawiki, an owner notes:

“Un son chaud, précis, pêchu, clair, détaillé… un superbe équilibre… image en 3D” (!)

This translates to praise for its warm yet precise, punchy, clear, and detailed output—suggesting real musical engagement and solid imaging.

It reportedly produced up to 256 W into 4 Ω in Audio magazine lab tests (!), indicating reliable headroom and agility.

✅ Strengths
• Musical and engaging sound without tube quirks
• Impressive power delivery for the era
• Robust build quality with serious transformer design

⚠ Considerations
• Vintage unit—may need service (caps, connectors, controls)
• No tube saturation—different sonic character from tube amps
• Lacks modern features like digital inputs or streaming support



🧭 Is It “High‑End”?

The 230C sits firmly in mid‑to‑upper vintage solid‑state territory. While it’s well-engineered and delivers serious performance, calling it high‑end depends on what you value:
• If you seek solid-state warmth and fidelity with good power, it’s a strong pick.
