Description
This is where it all started for the Lab12. Our love for music and high-end audio was our first and foremost challenge, explored years back throughout the headphone pre-amplifier. Dealing with the fragile signal and transforming it into the true high-end potent audio headphone amplifier is not the task, that everyone dares to explore.

True was designed as a mighty and potent passive high-end audio hub with multiple inputs and ultra transparent, yet musical volume control. As all Lab12 products, the true also comes with the choice of multiple luxury paint finishes.
The new XP-12 starts with a new power supply. It uses an efficient toroidal design with both an electrostatic and Mu metal shield along with vacuum impregnating and epoxy fill. This gives us a very quiet transformer both electrically and mechanically.
The power supply circuitry itself is also lower noise and has additional filtering, a little more complicated but worth it.
The XP-12 uses the single stage volume control borrowed from the XS line preamp. This gives us one hundred 1 dB steps with lower noise and distortion while removing some signal path parts.
The gain circuitry continues to use our favorite transistors from Toshiba but has a larger higher biased output stage similar to the XS preamplifier auto bias. This makes longer and multiple cable runs easier to drive and gives us the advantage of simplifying our single ended output circuitry while increasing performance. Overall this makes for a quieter more neutral, musical and versatile control center for your system.

The Music First Reference Phono Amplifier is an all valve moving magnet phone stage, employing innovative (possibly unique) circuit design, careful component selection and LCR RIAA equalisation. “… The separate power supply helps reduce noise…” (HiFi World) “…frees up a wealth of detail…Providing a new sense of realism…OUTSTANDING- amongst the best…” (HiFi Pig)PS AUDIO BHK SIGNATURE 250 STEREO POWER AMPLIFIER
£8,500.00
The BHK Signature 250 stereo amplifier, and the BHK Signature 300 Mono Amplifier embody one man’s life’s work and passion in the art of amplification. That these monuments to music can be offered to music lovers for less than £50,000 each is a testament to the years of experience invested in their design; that they are significantly less than £10,000 is a miracle.
