Cayin RU3

High-Performance ESS ES9069Q DAC
RU3 is equipped with the ESS ES9069Q, a modern DAC chip using ESS’s latest HyperStream IV Dual DAC architecture. This high-performance DAC ensures clear, natural sound with excellent channel balance and low distortion. With its independent op-amp design and low-phase-noise crystal oscillator, RU3 brings a smooth and detailed presentation — ideal for portable Hi-Fi listening.

Quad Balanced Drive Architecture
RU3 uses a quad balanced amplifier structure with two TI OPA1602 op-amps and two SGM8262 low-noise amplifiers. This setup delivers clean output and wide dynamic range while keeping noise impressively low. Even with its small size, RU3 can easily power most earphones and portable headphones.
Balanced Output: 560 mW + 560 mW (32Ω, HYP Mode)
Single-Ended Output: 180 mW + 180 mW (32Ω, HYP Mode)

Dual Power Modes — Smart Efficiency
Users can select between two Power Modes: HYP and STD. Hyper (HYP) Mode: Delivers full power output and extended dynamics. Standard (STD) Mode: Operates at lower power for cooler, more efficient performance.
This flexibility allows RU3 to perform reliably whether connected to a smartphone or computer, maintaining consistent sound quality under all conditions.
