The labyrinth has three components: 

Cochlea (containing receptors for hearing)

Semicircular canals (containing receptors that respond to head rotation)

Otolith organs (containing receptors that respond to gravity and head tilt)

The bony labyrinth is a series of channels and filled with a fluid called perilymph, which has a relatively low concentration of K+, similar to that of plasma or the cerebral spinal fluid
