PS Audio DirectStream DAC Mk 2
- The DirectStream DAC is PS Audio's reference standard D to A converter. It is unlike any standard chip-based DAC, and has received countless awards, worldwide.
Glanz S Series Tonearms
Glanz is an old Japanese name warmly welcomed back to the UK – this is the newly refreshed Glanz S Series tonearm, available in 9″, 10″ and 12″ versions.
Like all Glanz tonearms, constructed mainly from stainless steel parts with obsessive attention to resonance control, and now with an improved counterweight design.
This is, without exception, the finest tonearm that we have ever heard, and the physical quality is simply astonishing.
Effective mass is in the order of 30g, but Glanz do not quote a figure, so only suitable for genuinely low compliance cartridges (please call to discuss if you are unsure). Shipped with a Glanz MH-4S headshell and a tonearm cable..
Furutech Project V1 Mains Power Lead
Furutech’s Top-of-the-line High Performance Power Cord - 1.5m length
Alpha OCC-DUCC Silver Co ated α (Alpha) OCC Conductors Featuring NCF & Special forged carbon fiber composite Materials The Project V1 power cord features special connectors, exclusive to this power cord: an IEC connector, UK connector and Cable Damping rings that incorporate Furutech’s special antistatic and antiresonance NCF material combined with special high-grade nylon insulation. The housing of the special IEC connector and Damping Rings are formed with 4-layer hybrid NCF carbon fiber finished with a special hardened clear damping coating. The IEC connector side conductors are formed with nonmagnetic rhodium coated α(Alpha) pure copper and the UK connector with nonmagnetic rhodium coated α(Alpha) copper alloy conductors . Both are secured in bodies insulated with Furutech’s special antistatic and antiresonance NCF material NCF allows for the transmission of pure uncoloured power delivering improvements in the depth and focus of the sound stage, harmonics, and tonal balance. Low frequencies are cleaner, with a greater sense of definition made possible by a lowered noise floor.
DS Audio Master 3 Optical Phono Cartridge
The successor to the DS Master 1, which started the history of DS Audio
DS Master 3 Product Features
The DS Master 3 cartridge is a completely new design. The third generation of DS Audio’s optical cartridge features a comprehensively re-designed optical system that provides the following improvements and benefits.
Kondo IO-M Moving Coil Cartridge
- Reproduce the beauty of silence, relaxed sound with exceptional presence
- Drop the needle with excitement and sweet temptation
- Magnetic resistance is highly reduced by extra thickness of the yoke, improvement is much above ordinary designs.
Ex-Dem Pass Labs XP-22 Preamplifier
The new design uses double-shielded low noise toroidal transformers in external supply
The new design uses double-shielded low noise toroidal transformers in an external supply connected via aviation-grade circular connectors using silver over oxygen-free copper. The power supply is dual mono with two transformers with lower radiated and mechanical noise. Noise is the most prominent part of THD+N at low levels, so by lowering noise we get better resolution and dynamics.
The gain circuitry continues to use our favorite transistors from Toshiba but has a larger, higher biased, output stage like the Xs Preamp, and includes auto bias.
The larger output stage makes longer, and multiple cable runs easier to drive and gives us the advantage of simplifying our single-ended output circuitry while increasing performance.
The volume control is a single stage instead of two stages and has more range; it is quieter and more accurate. This is the same volume control as used in the XP-30.
Overall this makes for a quieter, more neutral, musical, and versatile control center for your system.
The XP-22 measures spectacularly well — but it really stands out sonically.
PS AUDIO BHK SIGNATURE 250 STEREO POWER AMPLIFIER
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.

PS Audio PMG Signature 512 DAC
At the heart of the PMG Signature 512 DAC is a breakthrough in digital audio: our PureStream DSD512 engine. Running at a blazing 22MHz, PureStream upsamples any incoming PCM or DSD signal to a native 8X DSD stream—far beyond standard formats and completely free from PCM conversion or decimation. This ultra-high-resolution DSD stream is then passed through our SpectraWave 64-Tap Sequencer, which time-aligns and refines the signal with surgical precision, lowering noise and distortion while preserving every musical nuance. From there, it flows directly into a simple, elegant analog low-pass filter—no complex conversion stages, just pure music.
The 512 doesn’t rely on off-the-shelf DAC chips. This is a custom-designed platform built from the ground up to achieve what no other DAC has: sonic transparency with SINAD better than -100dB and vanishingly low output noise. Multiple ultra-stable reclocking circuits, galvanic isolation between all digital inputs, and full separation between digital and analog sections ensure jitter-free, noise-immune performance.
And yes, the PMG Signature 512 also features our renowned Digital Lens technology, ensuring that incoming digital data is perfectly reorganized and reclocked before ever reaching the PureStream engine. Every effort in its design—from input to output—is focused on preserving imaging, tonal richness, and musical truth. One listen, and you’ll know: this is unlike anything you’ve heard before. The PMG Signature 512 DAC is not just a component—it’s a revolution in digital audio.
