There was not much written on the lab 12 by HiFi Pig but the company was just getting started i think. I would like to find a used unit though for 500..

Unlikely that the various people who have 'just discovered' this product and are posting gushing reviews, are unaware that it's been around for years. No wonder they are looking into making an updated version LOL. It would be a great buy if you can find a nice condition example for around $500 and it turns out to sound half as good as they say.
