Diagram 1：iHA-6 Front Panel illustration
Front Panel Functional Description
1. POWER On/Off
Turn on and off. Press Down the button to turn on the amplifier, Press again the
button will resume to original position and the amplifier will power off.
2. Power indicator, indicate the working status of the amplifier
a. Indicator flashing: in the process of initialization
b. Indicator always on: machine in regular operation
c. Indicator flashing rapidly: machine malfunction
3. Source：When LED lighted up, the amplifier is using Source A, and this is
responsible to the AUX (A) input at the back panel. When the LED is off, the
amplifier is using Source B, and that is responsible to the BAL (B) input at the
back panel.
4. Current： When LED lighted up, the amplifier is at “H” model, meaning the
amplifier is operated at high Quiescent Current (static current). When LED is off,
the amplifier is at “L” mode, meaning the amplifier is operated at low Quiescent
Current (static current).
5. Gain: When LED lighted up, the amplifier is at “H” mode, meaning the amplifier is
operated at high gain. When LED is off, the amplifier is at “L” mode, meaning
the amplifier is operated at low gain.
6. Single-ended Headphone connector
a. “Low”: can work with headphone terminated with 6.3mm phone connector,
recommended for low impedance headphones.
b. “High” can work with headphone terminated with 6.3mm phone connector,
recommended for high impedance headphones.
7. Dual 3 pins Balanced Headphone connectors
Can work with headphone terminated with TWO 3-pins XLR connectors, with the

5. FUSE
If in case you need to change the fuse, please resort to replacement fuse with
same specification with the original.
6. Power input connector
Note: Please make sure the AC Voltage Selector is setup correctly for your local
power supply voltage. Incorrect input voltage setting will cause damage to the
machine or might even lead to serious household accident, Cayin reserves the right to
refuse service or responsibility on related instances.
Preparation
1. Connect Power source
a. Verify that the AC input voltage selector has been set correctly for your local
power supply voltage
b. Plug in a power cord and connect to a AC power outlet
Connection Diagram (to be provided)
2. Connect to Audio Source
Connect your audio source to the amplifier by an appropriate audio cable. You
can choose either BAL or AUX input according to the connection facilitated by
your audio source equipment (selectable from the “Source” button on the front
panel). You can connect both BAL and AUX if so desired.
a. When connecting a RCA (single-ended) audio cable, please connect the
Right channel to the Red connector of the AUX (A) connection, and then the
Left channel to the White connector, connect the other side of the audio
cable to the RCA output of your source equipment (DAC or CD player)
b. When connect a XLR (Balanced) audio cable, insert the male connector to
the BAL (B) connection, please make sure the Left and Right channel are
connected properly. Please refer to the following diagram for detail.
