overview and specifications
Over the last 35 years, Tim de Paravicini has created a large range of musical machines, both tube and transistor. The V12 is his latest design and once again, Tim has managed to set the standard for others to aspire to. The sublime design, fabulous build quality and musical prowess of the V12 make this amplifier a 'must have'. Even before you hear the V12 - you want one !
Then when you listen to the V12 you instantly know that this is a special machine, designed with care. The sophisticated 10 tube preamp section delivers a dynamic and musically expressive signal to the 12 EL84 power tubes. The presentation is a rare blend of power and finesse, power normally associated with large solid state units and a musical finesse - the sovereign signature of tubes. Totally void of any harshness, a smooth delivery yet detailed and controlled. We can listen to music of any kind for endless hours with the V12 - surely another classic from EAR.

This integrated design uses 12 EL84 power tubes and no fewer than 10 ECC83 tubes for the preamplification. The result is astonishing - smooth, powerful, and fluid are words that come to mind. |

For those who search for the ultimate, no fuss, integrated amplifier this is it. You do not have to be a tube lover to be seduced by the V12, it does not have a typical tube or transistor 'sound' - it simply conveys a true and profound captivating musical message. |
