Devil in the Details, Angels in the Architecture …call it what you want but the sonic beauty of a Blackheart Engineering amplifier is only equaled by the meticulous craft that goes into its design and build. We’ve never once (and will not) build a musical instrument with cost as the guiding concern. That’s been done and you can get an amp on the cheap just about anywhere these days. Instead, every amplifier with the BHE “Heart and Flora” badge proudly affixed to it begins life as a hand built, no-compromise piece of gear. Pyotr Belov locks himself in the infamous two-car garage (now in Austin, TX) and makes great amps the way he always has: by hand, with the best materials and without stopping to think about what it’s costing.  

From there, Pyotr translates his designs into a PCB layout for larger production runs and sets out to teach our manufacturing partners, one to one, how to build a great amp using robust parts and design philosophies. He doesn’t head home until it's done and done right. This is the process that sets Blackheart apart and the reason your amp is built like a tank, sounds like an angel and you can actually afford it.
