The Return of a Legend ...
In 1979, LEAK disappeared from the production lines. The brand was pushed into obscurity to become a mere memory and a ‘cherished’ brand of yesteryear.
After many years of in a state of dormancy, LEAK was rescued by the IAG Group – one of the world’s premiere manufacturers of audio products and owner of a plethora of classic British brands.
In 2020, the year of Harold Joseph Leak’s 113th birthday and the year of H.J. Leak & Co’s 84th birthday,
IAG Group proudly announce the return of LEAK!
Maintaining the traditional art-deco inspired design and high-quality engineering foundations for the modern-day hi-fi enthusiast, LEAK is reborn.
With close attention to detail, matching original styling, format, performance and outstanding value, LEAK finally returns for the masses with the LEAK STEREO 130, and the first-ever digital CD playback device for LEAK, the LEAK CDT!
Offering diverse media compatibility without compromising on style and values of audio performance, LEAK returns, for the modern-day audio enthusiast.
OVERVIEW
When LEAK launched the iconic STEREO 30 in 1963, it swiftly became Britain’s favourite ‘step-up’ from the standard budget amplifiers of the time.
Now, in the year 2020, LEAK harnesses the latest technology to deliver an affordable integrated amplifier of the same philosophy; the STEREO 130 - fully equipped to meet the demands of modern music lovers, from vinyl record playback to digital streaming.
The LEAK STEREO 130 is high performance, high fidelity integrated amplifier designed 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 of your stored music through your loudspeakers and headphones, or even an expanded high-fidelity system, via the pre-amp functionality.
The LEAK STEREO 130 can be connected to a host of 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 fully accommodate the modern-day music enthusiast, 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, tablet PCs or smartphones, via the built-in aptX and AAC Bluetooth codec. One can therefore enjoy CD quality audio over the Bluetooth wireless connection.
Carefully designed in line with the LEAK ethos of reliability and craftsmanship, the LEAK STEREO 130 matches contemporary performance with stand-out, classic LEAK styling.
TURNTABLE READYTraditional audiophiles will recognise the assured quality in the high-quality, low-noise turntable input of the LEAK STEREO 130. Optimised for moving magnet 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 384kHz (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 matched electronics or loudspeakers.
