The LEAK Stereo 130
is high performance, high-fidelity integrated amplifier for the modern-day
audio enthusiast. It is designed to be the perfect match to a wide variety of
sources and provides the necessary amplification to realise the highest quality
oof your stored music through your loudspeakers and headphones or expanded high
fidelity system, via the pre-amp functionality.
The LEAK Stereo 130
can be connected of both analogue and digital sources, thanks to its diversity
of inputs. A built-in Moving Magnet (MM) phono pre-amplifier allows for direct
connection to turntable record players.
To accommodate the
modern-day music enthusiast fully, much effort has been made to ensure the LEAK
Stereo 130 ’s digital circuitry delivers the level of quality one might expect
of a high-performance standalone D/A converter, let alone an integrated amplifier
solution
You can also stream
music to the LEAK Stereo 130 from any Bluetooth device such as portable music
players and smartphones via innovative built-in aptX and AAC codec. One can
enjoy CD quality audio over the Bluetooth wireless connection.
Carefully designed
in line with the LEAK ethos of performance, reliability and craftsmanship, the
LEAK Stereo 130 matches contemporary performance with stand-out, classic LEAK
styling.
Turntable Ready
Traditional
audiophiles will recognise the assured quality in the high-quality, low-noise
turntable input of the LEAK Stereo 130. optimised for Moving Magnet (MM)
cartridges, the JFET-based circuit offers precise RIAA equalisation in
accordance with de facto industry standards for vinyl record playback
Headphone Users
The LEAK Stereo 130
uses a dedicated amplifier circuit with current-feedback technology for the
headphones output. Equal in performance to standalone headphone amplifiers,
beyond the price-class of this complete system, the design offers high-speed
output signal transition thanks to a high slew rate. The result is a dynamic,
detailed and engaging performance with all manner of headphone types.
Conversion Without
Compromise
Utilising the
acclaimed ES9018 Sabre32 Reference chip with ESS Technology’s 32-bit
HyperStream architecture and Time Domain Jitter Eliminator, the LEAK Stereo 130
offers ultra-low noise, high dynamic range of digital audio files with a
sampling rate of up to 284kHz (PCM) and DSD256.
Direct and Tone
Control
The LEAK Stereo 130
incorporates LEAK's signature Direct switch to bypass steps in the analogue
circuitry, for the purest signal path. In addition, the signature Bass and
Treble tone controls allow for customisation of the amplifier output signal to
suit your music medium and mateched electronics or loudspeakers.
