The C9ii is a very advanced headphones amp.

It benefits greatly from the very advanced amplification circuitry of the Cayin N30LE a limited release that is now completely sold out. Read the reviews of the N30LE to understand what you are getting with the C9ii. In the C9ii some of the features that couldn't be fully implemented in the N30LE due to size limitations were fully implemented in the C9II because it doesn't have a DAC section. The sound is rich, dense, natural and very detailed and extended also very dynamic, never distorting or compressing the sound during dense passages or climaxes or even very quiet passages. Make sure the rest of your systems are up to par.

C9ii 堪称当代耳放的巅峰之作。

它充分继承了 N30LE 放大技术的精髓，这还要从 N30LE 讲起——那些受限于 N30LE 体积而未能完全实现的放大技术，如今在 C9ii 上都得到了完美呈现——毕竟 C9ii 不用集成 DAC 模块。

C9ii 兼具丰润密度和自然延伸，当交响乐的洪流奔涌而至，或是夜曲中那缕若隐若现的叹息，C9ii 始终保持着举重若轻的从容。它既能将排山倒海般的交响高潮演绎得纤毫毕现，又能在钢琴独奏的弱音段落中，捕捉到演奏者指尖最细微的力度变化。就像一位技艺臻于化境的指挥大师，既能驾驭百人乐团的磅礴合奏，也能精准勾勒出单簧管独奏的每一丝气韵。

I only tried this since the question was asked about portable amps that could drive the Susvara OG. I wasn’t expecting much, but was pleasantly surprised. The Cayin C9II is a true beast of a transportable amp. This actually sounded good. Not as amazing as on my main Susvara chain. But really good.

原本只是为了回答"便携耳放能否推动 Susvara "这个问题才这么搭了一下。本没抱太大期望，结果却惊喜连连——C9ii 这个"掌上猛虎"的表现完全超出我的预期。虽然比起我的台式系统还有差距，但不得不说，在便携设备上能有这样的表现，已经堪称惊艳了。

Listening to Dire Straits on ZMF Atrium open with the R8ii and the C9ii and the first impressions are; “wow, this is a powerful little amp”… It drives these headphones quite good, i am on A:H G:H T:C and Hyper… Lots of detail, imaging but its really quite smooth/warm… Yeah… I may not sell my C9 but I for sure will be using it less.

(Yes, that is a little pocketlight, being half a century means the eyes are, well, less (no problems with hearing though (apart from some occasional light tinnitus)))

搭配：R8ii + C9ii + ZMF Atrium，A 类放大/高增益/经典音色/Hyper On，主要听 Dire Straits 的歌，开声第一反应是："小东西还挺猛"，这个搭配推大耳的表现让我颇为惊讶…解析非常惊人，马克·诺弗勒的吉他泛音纤毫毕现，声场规整，乐器定位如同临场演奏。

看来我的 C9 一代使用频率要大打折扣了…

PS：桌上放着个小手电筒…你没看错——我已经是年过半百的“老”烧友了，两眼昏花大不如从前了（好在听力依旧敏锐，除了偶发的耳鸣）。所谓"金耳朵，老花眼"，说的也就是我了吧。

Gain (L) + Anode (L) + Modern + AB + NFB ON

Right off the bat, the presentation is slightly more spacious with a slightly thicker bass texture. The soundstage expanded slightly, with more musicality than the X. Compared to the X, the midrange is where the magic truly happens, offering a warmer timbre that feels more organic and lifelike, more emotional.

Meanwhile, the treble strikes a good balance, easy on the ears yet fairly energetic when the track asks for dynamism. The upper treble is not as prominent and sharp as the X, but it is close.

I also tried to turn NFB off with this config, and I was positively surprised to find my preferred setting for the Volür. With the NFB off, the Y config sounds excellent. It is clean, expansive, and energetic. Think of X but with the added musicality and organic timbre of the tubes. It’s both organic and tonally balanced. Perfect.

一开声就能感受到开阔的声场，绵密的低频。高增益/高屏压/现代音色/ AB 类放大/负反馈开 这套组合下音场更大，音乐性也更好。真正惊艳的是这个设置下的人声表现——音色温暖饱满，人声温柔婉转富有生机，这是一种独特的，情深意浓的情感表达。

高频表现同样可圈可点，很多时候耐听和延展够高是两个相悖的话题，如果一个高频延展很好，能飙升的很高，通常来说就意味着极端的不耐听——因为过于刺激了。但 C9ii 在耐听的同时，在遇到需要大动态，高延展的乐段时依然保持不错的高频延展。极高频虽不如晶体管模式那般锋芒毕露，但延伸度依然出色。

值得一提的是，我试了一下在这个组合的基础上关闭负反馈，结果意外地发现这就是推Volür的最佳组合：既保持着晶体管模式的清冽，又兼具胆机的音乐性与温润，堪称完美…

Gain (L) + Anode (N/A) + SS + Hyper + NFB OFF

Tested with PWAudio 4.4mm Adapter and In solid-state mode, the Anode setting does nothing, so it’s marked N/A. Compared to Hugo 2 alone, the combo presentation is a little warmer, especially in the sub-range. The bass depth is improved, and its impact feels greater.

低增益/晶体管音色/ Hyper 模式/负反馈关闭

相较单独直接听 Chord Hugo 2，这套组合的声音更加温润。贝斯线条更加清晰可触，鼓点的冲击力明显更强。

I don't have the C9 but the C9ii for over ~5 months now and haven't regretted. The importance of the upstream source quality can't be emphasized enough AND the paring with HP and IEM. One surprise thus far is how scalable the SQ of the C9ii is. I tried the following sources:

- Sony ZX707 pre out (C9ii pre mode)

- WM1Z pre out (C9ii pre mode)

- WM1ZM2 pre out (C9ii pre mode)

- AK SE200 pre out (C9ii pre mode)

- AKSP3000T pre out (C9ii pre mode)

- Sony ZX707 digital out via iFi Diablo line out (C9ii amp mode)

- WM1Z digital out via iFi Diablo line out (C9ii amp mode)

- WM1ZM2 digital out via iFi Diablo line out (C9ii amp mode)

- AK SE200 digital out via iFi Diablo line out (C9ii amp mode)

- AKSP3000T digital out via iFi Diablo line out (C9ii amp mode)

Paired with Senn 800OG, MRD-Z1R, Tago T3-01, YH5000SE and ZMF CC, IEMs are IER-Z1R, M9, U18t and whilst these combinations yield diff performance and SQ but the better the upstreams and pairing the better results. Say when use with "WM1Z digital out via iFi Diablo line out (C9ii amp mode)" + MDR-Z1R, the SQ comes close to my HAA Resolute!

C9ii 听了有五个多月了，它从未让我失望过。尽管我已再三强调，但还是得再说一次：音源是至关重要的，前端决定了后面所有设备的素质上限。

说回 C9ii，它最让我感到惊喜的可塑性——它能将不同前端的实力发挥得淋漓尽致。

在试听过程中，我尝试了多种搭配方案：

ZX707、WM1Z、WM1ZM2，AK SE200、SP3000T Pre out 接 C9ii；还有用这些播放器做转盘，后面接 iFi Diablo 做解码，再让它 line out 接 C9ii。

耳机搭配方面，我在上面试过头版 HD800、MDR-Z1R、Tago T3-01、YH5000SE和ZMF CC；入耳的话试过 IER-Z1R、M9 和 64 Audio U18t。不同组合会呈现出截然不同的特质，但有一点是恒久不变的：前端素质越高，搭配越得当，效果就越好。比如" WM1Z→iFi Diablo→C9ii "推 MDR-Z1R 时，出来的声音几乎可以媲美我的 HAA Resolute 系统！

Yesterday dug out my iFi Diablo and see how it paired with C9ii. The setup is: AK SE200 digital out --> Diablo line out --> C9ii 4.4 out --> Tago T3-01.

To my surprise, this combo sounded very very good: - airy, transparent, nuanced, dense - it gives the music a life with excellent micro dynamics, texture and emotion, once again the C9ii demonstrated its scalability, the better the upstream, the C9ii just scales to higher ..

昨天翻出了尘封已久的 iFi Diablo，试了一下用它和 C9ii 组一套系统：AK SE200→ifi Diablo→C9ii 4.4口→Tago T3-01。

开声就惊艳到我了——这套组合呈现出极其通透空灵又细腻饱满的声音：空气感十足，每个音符都带着鲜活的微动态，音乐情感表达之深刻…我完全沉浸在演奏者的情绪起伏中。C9ii 再次印证了它"遇强则强"的特性：当前端素质提升时，它总能突破我对便携的认知...

The combo: AK SE200 + Cayin C9ii + IER-M9

I use the AKM DAC on SE200 as its a duo DAC and line out, and the C9ii setting is class A mode, classic timbre, high anode, low gain

Listened to Lhasa de Sela - Lhasa Live in Reykjavik

The sound and the music rendering is energetic, majestic and the vocal is sentimental

Bravo ..

我的搭配：AK SE200 + Cayin C9ii（甲类/经典音色/高屏压/低增益）+ IER-M9

在演绎 Lhasa de Sela 的《Live in Reykjavik》现场 live 时，澎湃的能量感，临场感以及拉萨那带着颗粒感的烟嗓独特的感染力着实震惊到了我。

完美…
