LEAK Stereo 130 Integrated Amplifier

Introducing the Leak Stereo 130
The Legend Returns

When LEAK launched the iconic STEREO 30 in 1963, it swiftly became Britains favourite step-up from the standard budget amplifiers of the time.

Now, 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 records to digital streaming.

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 both analogue and digital sources, thanks to its diversity of inputs. It has a built-in Moving Magnet (MM) phono pre-amplifier which allows for direct connection to turntable record players. 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.Enjoy CD-quality audio over the Bluetooth wireless connection.

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

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, pairing perfectly with the LEAK CDT.

Product Features

Various inputs options or connecting analog and digital sources, including a built-in JFET based moving magnet phono stage.
Bluetooth connectivity with aptX and AAC codecs for CD-quality audio
High-quality digital circuitry for excellent sound
Meticulously crafted design with 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 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 headphone 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 Technologys 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.

A MORE POWERFUL ICON

Owners of heritage hi-fi understand that its not about being retro but capturing the essence of an era the excellence of its music, its art, its design. This excellence is machined into the very fabric of each LEAK piece so that your every play is iconic.
