E.A.R. V12

$9,795.00

Inspired by Performance

Referenced from Tim de Paravicini’s admiration of Jaguar’s
powerplant, the EAR V12 extracts much of the same philosophy. The design
utilises six EL84s on each bank for a total of twelve, the sum of which
is high performance with balance and grace.

The geometry isn’t just engine mimicry but allows for an
organised and compact layout with central weight distribution. This
creates a design that has powerful lines and compelling proportions.
Despite its bold use of chrome and adventurous styling, the EAR V12 sits
proud but is not obtrusive in any environment.


Exquisite detailing

The V12 utilises EAR Yoshino’s rich tradition of
workmanship, blending high calibre engineering with craft. Beautiful
hand selected and polished wooden end caps on the ‘half moon’ valve
covers add a simple but distinctive touch to the design making each EAR
V12 unique. Chrome transformer covers suggesting a sleek aerodynamic
power block, with sufficient power in reserve for the most demanding
audio terrain.

Breathtaking from every angle, the EAR V12 is built with a
level of quality associated with solid construction that gives the
impression that you are using something truly special.

Our greatest engine

Tim de Paravicini’s vision was beyond just a collection of
EL84s but to create an amplifier of unparalleled power and clarity.
Utilizing Tim’s own ‘balanced bridge mode circuit’ that takes the
primary windings of the output transformer and splits them equally
between the Anode and Cathode circuits of the tubes so they’re
capacitively cross-coupled enabling increased bandwidth.

Aided with the use of a Pentode Mode parallel push-pull
class “A” circuit, the valve amplifier produces soft second harmonic
distortion in low quantities with superb linearity.


Power behind the beauty

The transformers are bespoke designs, that are hand-wound in
Cambridgshire, England. The output transformers are designed and built
for ultra-wide bandwidth. Providing extended frequency response at both
ends of the spectrum.

Each bank of six EL84’s provids fifty watts of pure high
quality audio and improved low-level detail. With perfect loudspeaker
coupling, the V12 is equipped with the smooth muscular power of its
automotive namesake. As a consequence of Tim de Paravicini’s attention
to detail in the design process, he ensured that this power is
conservatively within the capability of the V12.
